Ozone Explore V3 Kite - great for land or snow.   

The amount of depower that a single surface kite offers, and the speed that it's applied, is unparalleled, especially in the Explore V3, which is tuned for the ultimate in self-reliance.

The balance in design was to deliver as much flying performance as possible while ensuring the near-instant depower feels as clean and smooth as possible. 

 

 

The Explore V3’s optimised bridle layout and tab positions, as well as the new, longer plastic ribs, help the kite maintain a more forward and efficient flying position. 

The unrivalled depower and huge sense of security will encourage you to go deeper into the backcountry. Adding to your confidence is the Explore V3’s crash-resistant build, super easy self landing / launching ability and the incredibly small size it packs down to.

The single surface Explore V3 makes snowkiting a real possibility for everyone. 

“Thanks to the lightweight materials and design, even in extremely light winds the kite feels incredibly stable overhead. The kite remains solid and won't collapse, regardless of the force of the gusts, and no matter where the kite is in the window, as soon as you push the bar away, the power dies.

“The Explore V3 is the kite I choose to teach my clients with and I'm 100% confident in it.”

JOHANN CIVEL, OZONE TEAM RIDER, SNOWKITE GUIDE AND COACH

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

The Explore V3 has the same cell count, planform and aspect-ratio as the V2, yet through careful refinements, the design team have managed to: 

1. Further reduce drag

2. Deliver increased control

3. Improving overall stability.

 Improved upwind performance: The addition of full-length battens helps reduce drag, making the kite perform better when flying upwind in stronger conditions.

• Enhanced stability and smoother power control: Adjustments to the bridle layout, including fewer tabs and lines, along with repositioning of key tabs, provide extra stability, smoother power modulation, and improved bar feel.

• Better canopy tension and control: A more accurate arc and optimised bridle layout result in improved canopy tension, leading to better overall control and efficiency.

 Cleaner trailing edge: ‘Shrink’ brake tabs reduce drag and create a smoother, cleaner trailing edge, improving overall aerodynamics.

These changes focus on reducing drag, increasing control, and improving overall kite stability.

WHAT YOU FEEL? 

 

Confident

Super predictable flying characteristics add the really forgiving feel which inspires confidence in all situations. Even in an exposed position on a hill, you can just park the kite at the zenith without feeling intimidated. 

 

 

Capable

Although massively accessible, the Explore V3 is capable of delivering huge riding potential to advanced riders who want to push their boundaries. The versatile handling can be used to steer the kite through tight and dynamic loops, or slower, wider arcs; both essential for navigating difficult terrain. 

 

Adventurous

The Explore V3 is powerful in any size. Take advantage of the ultra smooth and constant pull and then depower the kite instantly, wherever it is in the window.

Self-landing is at its easiest with the Explore V3, while its compact and lightweight characteristics, along with its crash-resistant build will encourage you to venture further without fear of complication. 

 

REVOLUTIONARY RE-RIDE RELEASE  SYSTEM (GIF below) 

 

Our unique Internal Re-Ride Release System is the market leading Snowkite release and landing system and features on both our snowkite-specific bars: the Contact Snow V5 and Snow EXP V5. 

It has made mountain climbing and packing so much more enjoyable, safe, easy and quick for the user. When activated the kite de-powers instantly without tangling and will sit on the ground ready to re-launch whenever you are. If you need to, you can also completely release the kite.

 

DON’T FORGET TO STOP FOR A SNACK AND ADMIRE THE VIEWS 

 

Another advantage of the Ozone Internal Re-Ride Release System is the land and secure option. To land the kite simply pull the 5th line until you reach the Secure Loop which can be found approximately two metres up from the control bar. 

The kite will stall and fall to the ground without any pull. Use the Secure Loop in the 5th line to keep the kite on the ground - it can be hooked onto the kite leash clip, or slipped over the bar end. This makes landing and packing your kite safe and easy even in high winds.

Great shoe!
Size: 5.5 Big Kid, Color: (106) Castlerock/Anthracite/Phoenix Fire
Great fit, very durable, excellent foot support, lots of great colors to choose from. We have had these for over 6 months and thy have not overstretched or come apart in any way. I am really pleased with these shoes for my child who is VERY hard on shoes and usually has sensory issues surrounding shoe comfort/tightness.

Great fit for kids
Size: 10 Toddler, Color: Light Grey
We purchased the RUNSIDE Boys Girls Tennis Shoes for my child and have been really happy with them. They’re super lightweight and breathable, which is great for all-day wear and running around. My child says they’re comfortable, easy to put on, and don’t make their feet hot. The shoes seem durable so far and have held up well with playground time, sports, and everyday use. They also look cute and match with a lot of outfits. The fit was true to size and the non-slip sole gives good traction. Overall, these are a great affordable option for active kids and I would definitely buy them again!

Shoe laces aren't great.
Size: 3 Big Kid, Color: Black White
I bought these RUNSIDE kids tennis shoes for everyday wear and school, and overall they’re lightweight, breathable, and comfortable for active use. My child liked how easy they were to put on, and they worked well for running and general play. The shoes themselves feel flexible and pretty comfortable for the price point. The upper material is breathable, which helps during sports or warmer weather, and they don’t feel heavy on the feet. However, the main issue is the original shoelaces. They constantly came untied no matter how they were tied, which became frustrating pretty quickly during the day. We ended up replacing them with better-quality laces, and that solved the problem. Pros: * Lightweight and comfortable for kids * Breathable material works well for active use * Easy for everyday wear and school * Good fit for the price Cons: * Original shoelaces do not stay tied well * Laces needed to be replaced for practical use Overall, these are solid budget-friendly kids’ sneakers that work well once the laces are swapped out. The shoe itself is comfortable and functional, but the included laces are definitely a weak point.
