Gul wing 460 stab

A great rear stab stable, but easy to turn.

Brilliant Kite

I got a great deal on this kite. A 10% first time buyer discount plus a free hand leash, all with free delivery.
The kite arrived promptly minus the free hand leash. After a couple of messages the hand leash was duly posted out with no problems.
This kite flies like a dream. The video attached shows me flying the kite in 7-8mph winds. I’ve also flown in 15mph winds but this needed more concentration and if you aren’t focusing 100% then you could get uprooted! I would definitely recommend this kite from this company.

Best kite ever made, hands down!

I feel sorry for anyone who hasn’t tried a Vortex. The 9m gets going like an 11m in light winds but fast as a 8m. Wind range is insane when you’re pushing its limits. Boosting is smooth and big, drifts and fires upwind instantly. Hats off to Ozone for this one! Thanks for the demo kite available in the shop 🫶🏼🤙🏽

Game changer for me!

Absolutely love this Neo hoodie. Keeps the wind and cold off you totally between sessions or even wear it on a chilli session. Should have got one ages ago. 👌🏼👌🏼 cheers NK

Nice Vest!

Go rid of my old vest and replaced with the Ion. It’s just the right thickness for kiting. My old one was too thick and rode up my chest. Spot on! 🫶🏼🤩

Leash review

I’m very pleased with my new leash. It’s very easy to attach on and off my harness and it stays out of the water whilst winging..

Great customer service

Seems like a really supple and high end wetsuit. Although I haven't used it yet. There was an issue with the wetsuit zip. They resolved it really quickly with no fuss.
