What Ozone has to say:

EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. LET IT HAPPEN.

The Vortex will fill you with confidence in any heart pumping situation. Clean and predictable handling makes riding feel simple in the best way. It’ll shoot you up when you ask it to and respond instantly without feeling twitchy. It’s built for the big days, the ‘send it’ moments and for bringing wild ideas to reality. The Vortex will take you from safely landing your first kite loops to navigating the sky, throwing the craziest doubles in mind bending conditions. The Vortex isn’t just for the crazies. We’ve pushed the jumping performance at the bottom end of each size too, so you can practice your tricks in calmer conditions. If you dream of throwing twin-tip tricks in what would ordinarily be foiling-only conditions, the new ultra light weight Vortex 17m size will be your ultimate ally. The Vortex will make you believe you can land your tricks. Push yourself harder, stay up there longer. No drama and no surprises; just smooth control that lets you focus on the sensation not the fear. Big air, dynamic loops, a super reliable catch every time and huge smiles. The Vortex is on your team.

What's New in the Vortex V2?

• EVEN MORE DIRECT FEEL AND TIGHTER CONTROL - Re-worked canopy tension in each size alongside a stiffer leading edge delivers pin point handling feedback. Know where the kite is without ever needing to look at it!
• EVEN LONGER LASTING PERFORMANCE - New Anti Flap Battens positioned on underside of the canopy with added reinforcements reduce canopy wear, ensuring your kite performs like new for longer
• EXTRA LIGHTWIND FIREPOWER - Sizes 10m to 17m now feature our proven lighter weight double ripstop 46g canopy. By shaving off up to 150g, we’ve created big-sized kites that rival the
  agility of much smaller models and can compete with similar size foil kites for power
• NEW 17M SIZE - Designed for riders who refuse to stop riding hard when the wind is light. To date, it’s the lightest 3-strut kite on the market
• HIGH WIND DURABILITY - Smaller sizes (9m and below) continue to use our triple ripstop 55g canopy cloth for ballistic strength on the big days
