Predicting the 2014 Ozone Kite Designs
EDIT: See my new post below. :D
I saw this image on another forum showing two 2014 Ozone Reos:
http://www.seabreeze.com.au/img/photos/kitesurfing/7369735.j...
And after carefully scanning that image, I tried to guess as to what the entire kite looked like. I made a quick photoshop draft of the possible
design here:

And this is what the 3d-printed version looks like:

So that when Ozone actually reveals the 2014 Reo, I'll verify to myself (and the Internet) how skilled I am as a detective.
Oh, and I have a lot more 3d-printed model kites if you're curious to see them as well.

Wouldn't it have been simpler to just find a Google Maps Satellite view of the kite?

Ha, looks good ! (Totally something I would do too !
)
What about the actual words 'Ozone' and 'REO' that are on the kites. And the stripes, almost zebra-esque bit at the bottom :D

I believe kiteboarding.com sent me an email asking me to design my own 2014 Ozone kite...
Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

Which is a bit dumb, cos that'd really interest me. How much extra could it possibly cost them?
