Ozone Flow V1

The All New Ozone Flow V1. This is the wing that WingFoilers both new and experienced, have been waiting for – the perfect all rounder with a bias towards wave riding. Standard fabrics and related materials keep the price to performance ratio in check whilst still benefitting from all the tech and design developments which have gone into the high performance Flux and Fusion. The Flow is the right wing for ‘most’ people.

The FLOW – Does it all

The aim at the Ozone design centre was to make a wing with a greater sense of control to help riders accelerate their riding progression, from tacking and gybing, to jumping or wave riding, the Flow is designed to smoothly deliver what you need.

Features: (See the Features Tab)

PROGRESSION

The Flow has a responsive, lightweight and easy feel and that delivers both progressive power with good low end torque to get you up on foil. It also has a size range to handle stronger winds and higher speeds without losing control. The Ozone Flow really is a highly manoeuvrable and yet incredibly stable wing in hand and overhead. Yout tacks and gybes are made easy when passing the wing from hand to hand, giving you time to relax and complete the manoeuvre.

The extended front handle allows for balanced one handed steering, opening up all sorts of expressive carving manoeuvres in flat water. Instead of riding with a locked-in two-handed position, you can maintain power and control while holding the wing out to the side in one hand, offering a very fluid and free feeling.

IN THE WAVES…

If your primary aim is riding waves and swell, whatever the size and quality, the Ozone Flow is for you. The span and aspect-ratio are perfectly tuned to help prevent wing tip touchdowns whilst giving a fantastic well balanced centre of power when riding one handed.

The extended front handle is also particularly good for wave riding where you might quickly need to switch between powered up foiling and drifting. In small wave conditions, or in cross-onshore wind swell, it’s not always worth the big movement to grab the handle so the Flows longer front handle allows you to find a balance point to steer the wing one handed and still benefit from having a some pull from the wing.

NEW SEMI-RIGID SURF HANDLE

The Flow is equipped with a new semi-rigid surf handle that gives you even more control and prevents the wing inverting. In good waves there’s nothing like ripping back and forth with a beautifully balanced wing drifting obediently behind you.

FREESTYLE

The Flows compact design of the Flow with its taught canopy, on-tap power, rigid handles, excellent manoeuvrability and impressive boost capabilities make it a great choice for freestylers. It’s fast for rotations and is excellent if you want to get inverted as the canopy behaves well when going from positive to negative loads. No matter if you are just starting to get air or you’re a seasoned freestyler, the Flow ticks all the boxes.

BUILT TO BE RIDDEN!

We’ve used the reliable and rugged Teijin Dacron on the leading edge and struts to provide excellent resistance to flex and abrasion. The canopy is made from Teijin’s proven 55g triple ripstop for a wing designed for constant action.

As with all Ozone products, weight savings have been made where possible but without compromise. The design team were able to save weight but still ensure integral strength remains “built in” throughout. The Flow is made with great care by the hands of the expert sewing team in the Ozone manufacturing facility.

TUNED WITH CUSTOMISED DESIGN SOFTWARE

Using Ozones custom OzCAD design software developed in-house, every stitch and square inch of material placement is carefully calculated and results in a super clean finish and well tensioned canopy.

Each part of the Flows design has been tailored to create an all-round performance wing with a mid-price range on which any intermediate through to expert WingFoiler can rip on it without restraint.

Sizes: 3.0m, 3.6m, 4.3m, 5.0 or 5.7m

Colours: Green, Orange or Rubine Red

FLOW STATE

Sitting between the Fly (Ozones entry level to intermediate freeride / wave riding wing) and the Flux (Ozones high end, full speed performance freeride wing), the Flow is a brand new wing to the line-up that takes over from where the Ozone Wasp left off.

When it comes to improving on the water and to increase the fluidity and ease of riding, the extended front carbon handle offers the advantages of a boom, like flying the wing one handed and easy hand placement, yet it packs small and (unlike a Boom) doesn’t need to be added in ahead of or removed after your session.

Although it replaces the WASP in the range, the design brief for the Flow was an entirely different concept. Based on the handling advantages programmed in the DNA of the ew Ozone Flux, the Flow has less span and lower aspect ratio than the Flux, offering more low end power and easier handling.

The tough and scuff-able airframe delivers clean aerodynamic performance, but is also built for the kind of beach handling that intermediate riders are likely to put their wing through.

The Flow is a fully featured design and also includes harness line attachments for when you’re ready to ride faster, harder and for longer with less arm fatigue in stronger conditions.
