The Contact-Snow Control System offers the latest in safety features, a clean control bar design and a simple easy-to-use trimming system.

Push Away Quick Release – The control system features a new Megatron pushaway quick release safety with total flag out of the kite. The release handle is ergonomic with positive release forces (under 8kg) allowing for quick and easy release. Simple re-assembly saves time and gets you back up and riding faster.

Three Safety Modes – The new Contact-Snow Control System offers riders a choice of three safety modes; the recommended Flag Out safety, or the optional Brake Handle or Suicide safety modes.
NOTE: When teaching/practicing release and reload of the chickenloop, we recommend doing so in light winds with the leash attached to the Brake Handle.

• The recommended Flag Out safety offers 100% flag out in all situations by releasing the Megatron or letting go of the bar when un-hooked.
• The Brake Handle safety method attaches the safety leash to the hand brake line that connects to the back leaders, when Megatron is released the kite stalls down to the ground.
• The Suicide option offers 100% flag out only when the Megatron is released whilst hooked in, allowing riders practicing handle passes to let go of the bar with out flagging the kites safety (not recommended).

Anti-twist 100% Flag Out Line – The flag out line running through the Megatron & safety leash attachment at the bottom keeps the leash tangle free when doing rotations and manually unwinding the centre lines using the Spinning Handle.

Low Friction Centre Piece – The new control bar features a low friction aluminum centre piece designed to reduce trim line wear.

Auto Positioning Chicken Loop – Designed in conjunction with the bar centre piece, the Megatron spinning handle allows chicken loop auto positioning, offering easy unhooked riding and hooking back in.

Magnetic trim handle system – The Magnetic trim handle connects to a magnetic neoprene sock covering the clam cleat to reduce tangles when the trimmer is depowered.

PU Covered trim line & Ronstan Orbit Pulley – The tough PU covered trim significantly reduces wear when sheeting in and out, whilst the smooth running Ronstan Orbit Pulley also prevents trim line wear.

The Contact-Snow Control System bar sizes come in 45cm, 50cm and 55cm. The larger size PU chicken loop (sold separately) is perfect for riders with longer arms or for riders wanting even easier hooking in & out.

2015 Nobile NHP Snowkite Technology

	APS TECHNOLOGY ADDED PRE-STRESS APS Technology - Pre-stress. Prestressing means the intentional creation of initial tension in a structure for the purpose of improving its strength properties. In kiteboarding, pre-stress allows the board to be loaded with energy during production. Storing the energy inside the board makes it a bit more stiff and much more torsion resistant, which results in astonishing POP. Pre-Stress technology also allows us to build thinner and lighter boards, yet still more durable.
	CAV - COMPLETE ANTI-VIBRATION TECHNOLOGY  CAV - Complete Anti-Vibration Technology - By using advanced core materials, laminates and variable flex zones, we managed to eliminate almost all vibrations that occur during the ride. CAV not only makes the ride smoother and faster, but also provides exceptional grip in all conditions.
	WOODCORE Woodcore - There is no better material for a board core than wood. With its harmonious characteristic, combining strength, flex, light weight and vibration damping, wood is still the uncrowned king of core materials.
	POWER PLATES  Power Plates - Additional biax fiber laminate underneath the binding area improves power transfer to the edges with great damping properties.
	GLOSSY LACQUER Glossy Lacquer - Careful paint jobs not only magnifies colors and makes your board the best looking equipment on the spot, but it also protects the kiteboard graphic from fading.
	ABS SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION ABS Sandwich Construction - This industry standard construction provides direct power transfer to the edges and vibration damping, resulting in easy to handle and precise boards.
	EXTRUDED BASE Extruded Base - This base combines reliably good running properties with high durability.
	T.R.I.P. TECHNOLOGY Trip technology  lifts up the board edges at the points where the sidecut meets tip and tail of the board, providing easier turn initiation, safer landings and catch-free straight riding.

Even though the Ozone Access was originally developed for teaching and entry level riders it has become a favorite for experienced riders who require ultra stability in turbulent high mountain conditions. Most of our International team riders keep a 4m or a 6m in their quiver and would not be caught without it for those trips to the mountains. The Access has also been a favorite for expeditions where it is essential to have safe and easy to use kites in extreme conditions. The design of this already classic kite has more stability even at low angles of attack due to a specifically created profile. The progressive arc means that the kite is rock solid in the air but still has a quick turning speed and responsive bar feeling. The low aspect ratio ensures stability in the gustiest of conditions but still delivers constant power and progressive pull.

The design goal of this kite is to allow total new comers to enjoy this sport from their very first session. We have made this possible by creating an incredibly stable kite, which has a constant pull and a large wind range. If you are new to the sport or an occasional snowkiter, the Access is the kite you need to learn the basics of Snowkiting and progress to find out what this incredible sport can offer. This has helped to make the Access a great teaching tool, which is why it has become the kite of choice for top Snowkite schools around the globe. The 2015 Ozone Access design brings unsurpassed ease of use and superior safety to the Snowkite world. With the addition of our new Internal Re-Ride Safety System the Access is simply the best choice for new Snowkite enthusiasts.

The 2015 Ozone Chrono, is Ozone's newest creation and it will shatter the limits of light wind kiting on any surface whether water, land, ice or snow. The 2015 Ozone Chrono is a high performance, high aspect, water-relaunchable foil kite that will have you flying fast, cranking upwind, and boosting huge all year round. Our aim was to create the ultimate light wind performance kite for all terrain. Powerful, fast and consistently forward flying, the Chrono is a light wind freeride boosting machine that also excels in racing on the water, land or snow.

TECHNOLOGY:

The Chrono is at the pinnacle of technical foil design and is Ozone’s first production kite designed with our new re-modeled CAD software; the results are impressive. We used our extensive knowledge in wing development and drew on our history in aerodynamics to create a no expense spared cutting edge foil kite.

Design – The Chronos lightweight double surface design is combined with a high-aspect ratio of 7.0 and an incredible 47 cells, resulting in extreme flight efficiency. The aspect ratio has been calculated to be an optimum match with the profile for maximum performance. A high number of cells mean the ribs are positioned close together, creating ultra smooth surfaces with less drag and maintaining a clean profile. L.E Profile Reinforcements – The Leading Edge is reinforced with flexible lightweight plastic battens to maintain the shape of the profile during angle of attack changes and turbulent airflow.

Internal Straps – Newly calculated internal span-wise straps distribute load across the sail evenly and effectively, while also maintaining a cohesive internal balance controlling the high aspect ratio.

High Performance Bridle Lines – To keep parasitic drag to a minimum we have used Edelrid performance line. This line is ultra high quality, non-stretch with a reduced diameter helping achieve our goal of maximum performance.

High Performance Materials – High-tenacity sail cloth with extremely low porosity values and an overall lightweight enabled us to further stabilise the canopy and maximise fast flight characteristics.

FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS:

If you are looking to get the most out of your light wind sessions, the Chrono will peak your experience. With incredible upwind performance, low-end grunt and huge float in jumps it will have you ripping!

The Chrono is for experienced riders or riders with previous foil kite experience. It is not difficult to fly but there are techniques required to fly a high aspect ratio foil kite. Riding on snow or land is easy, with plenty of power and handling in light winds to be clocking high speeds and long airtime.

On the water with a Twin-tip the Chrono is a light wind monster; loads of power, easy to jump and stable. Due to the abundance of power and efficiency gaining upwind ground is ridiculously easy, in light wind its impressive how high and floaty jumps can be with the Chrono. No question at all, this is a pop and float machine, just edge hard and send it, too easy!

If you race - water, land or snow you need to have a serious look at one of these. The Chrono has all the technology you can imagine. The upwind performance is blazing and it can also hold a very deep downwind line. One other noticeable benefit is how much easier it is to tack when riding with a Foil board or Course board. This is thanks to the longer lifting period the Chrono gives you during that critical tacking moment compared to an LEI.

RELAUNCH AND SAFETY SYSTEM:

The Chrono is a closed cell foil and has great water re-launch, but we recommend that you keep it flying and out of the water if possible! A drainage system on the wing tip allows any water that may have entered the kite to drain out. The Chrono features a simple yet effective front line flag out safety. After releasing to the flag out safety you should check the speed system, bridle lines and your flying lines for twists before restart.

The Chrono is not a wave kite and should not be used in waves.

Innovations

The Flysurfer Kiteboarding R&D team always tries to give kitesports more variety. It was through allowing ourselves the room and opportunity to achieve truly innovative products that we created the first Single-Skin kite. For years, Reinhart Paelinck worked to achieve his dream to build the world’s most versatile kite. Flysurfer had high expectations to improve this unique product even more – and we knew it could be achieved through the combined expert knowledge of our Paragliding and Foil-kite development team. Now, with the PEAK2, Reinhart and Flysurfer have made the next leap forward. The PEAK2 has unmatched low-end, enhanced stability and even more performance – but it still comes in a lighter and smaller package! We’re proud that we were able to further improve this innovative Single-Skin kite product.

Added value

The PEAK2 is your personal lift to the summit of mountains. No pre-inflation or pumping is needed, so it’s always ready to go for a session. Its unmatched low-end power will guide you to new locations, even in the slightest breeze, and thanks to its effective depower, you’ll be safe and in control, even in stronger winds. The PEAK2 will soon become your go-to kite, the kite you want to use every day, so you won’t miss out on that great session, even as a beginner. Because of its small packing size, and its touring bag/harness, you can literally take the PEAK2 anywhere you want. This combination will make it your ultimate toy either on snow, sand, grass or asphalt. It’s your passport to pure freedom.

Safety

When it comes to safety, we do not compromise. The PEAK2 now has incredible stability in light breezes or gusty strong winds, so you always remain in charge, no matter what happens. After activating the Infinity 2.0 quick release on the Infinity Light control bar, the front-line safety (FLS) makes the PEAK2 flag-out downwind with no remaining pull. Whether you need to reverse launch, backstall landings, or simply drop the kite at the edge of the wind window for a short break, the PEAK2 does it all, giving you optimum control in every situation.

Usability

Choose your favourite size from the new PEAK2 line-up – 12.0m, 9.0m, 6.0m or 4.0m. Whichever you opt for, your PEAK2 will be delivered ready-to-fly and complete with your Infinity Light control bar and flying lines. It’s ideally suited for backcountry touring, free-ride snowkiting, kite landboarding or buggying – even unhooked freestyle tricks are possible. When it comes to improving your skills, the PEAK2 also stands out from the crowd, making it the perfect choice for kite schools. And thanks to the easy controllability, it allows for pure fun in your kiting sessions, even for children. Once equipped with our kite and touring bag/harness, all you need to do is hook in the Infinity quick release on your Infinity Light control bar and prepare for launch. Whether you’re on land or snow, only the sky is the limit with the new PEAK2 from Flysurfer!

Flysurfer Peak2 Features

Innovative single-skin depower concept

Compared to its ram-air double-skin cousins in our line-up, the PEAK2 has no bottom sail, resulting in a huge reduction in weight and more performance per square metre. And thanks to the efficiency of the PEAK2’s depower system, the power is controllable. When it comes to low-end and wind range, the PEAK2 definitely sets new standards.

Unmatched low-end

Fun in 3-4 knots? The PEAK2 makes it possible! Even in extreme light winds, the kite provides incredible stability, usability and perfect control.

Minimalistic pack-size

The super-small pack size of only 52x14x14cm (HxLxW) for the 6.0m ready-to-fly PEAK2 means it fits easily in any travel bag, saving you money on additional sports equipment charges. The minimalistic weight of the 6.0m r.t.f (1.94kg) is a huge advantage in comparison to common closed-cell, open-cell or LEI snow kites – which you’ll definitely appreciate while hiking up mountains!

Infinity Light control bar

The new lightweight bar for the PEAK2 is robust with a more comfortable grip, a new adjuster (clamcleat) and the proven 2.0 quick-release system with easy untwisting function, so you can enjoy even better comfort while reaching the top of the world.

No compromise on safety

A proven front-line safety (FLS), the 2.0 quick-release and Infinity Light control bar gives you maximum security about your safety. If activated, the Infinity 2.0 quick release can be reassembled within seconds, so your PEAK2 is ready to fly again.

Quality of workmanship and durability

With the PEAK2 we remain true to the Flysurfer philosophy to make our products durable. As an additional service we also offer the Flysurfer 12-month free repair warranty.

Fast and easy handling

No pre-filling or pumping is necessary, simply unpack the PEAK2 and you’re ready to go in the blink of an eye. It really is the most user-friendly kite in kitesports history!

Touring bag with integrated kite harness

This optional extra is a light trekking backpack with an integrated harness in which you can put conventional hydration packs. The straps on the touring bag attach around your waist and thighs, while the chicken loop attaches via special metal loops. This saves the need to bring a standard bulky and heavy harness along. But this bag is not a harness replacement – it’s designed for maximum weight savings for expeditions and freeriding.

Universal application

Whether it’s on land or snow, with a kite landboard or a buggy, skis or snowboards, for free-ride or teaching purposes, adults or children, beginners or advanced, for urban street kiting or as a travelling companion, the PEAK2 is your ultimate toy for a daily session.

How to Snowkite

Volume One, Instructional Snowkiting DVD
by Morten Gjerstad

Who better to make a great new (and sorely needed) snowkiting instructional video than the maker of the amazing snowkite DVDs like Entropy and Something Stronger - Morten Gjerstad. He is not only an accomplished filmmaker (using all high-definition footage) but also has access to the top riders in the world who are on the cutting edge of what is happening in snowkiting.

This is 2 hours of the most thorough introduction to snowkiting you can imagine. There are chapters on terminology, equipment, location and conditions, kite flying basics, using foil kites, using tube kites (each kite chapter includes information on setup, safety systems, launching and landing, relaunching, and even packing), riding basics (like edging, turning, and going upwind), back country riding, expedition kiting, kite repair, and basic jumping. This is definitely the complete course to becoming a safe and confident snowkiter. When volume 2 is released it will take off from the basic jump and go into all the trick types of jumps and many other specialized advanced snowkiting skills.

The HQ Montana 8 clean design was chosen to reduce tolerances in production to a minimum. The result – an aerodynamic masterpiece.  HQ Montana 8, performance requires precision in design. The 8th generation Montana is a totally new kite. Two years of intensive work from our R&D team has resulted in a completely changed shape. A lower AR and C-Kite like shape give added stability to the kite without compromising the performance and light wind ability of the older Montanas.

This becomes noticeable in the direct handling and ease of use. The HQ Montana 8 combines a great freestyle and freeride ability. The increased efficiency of the power per square meter is particularly noticeable in the lower wind range. Once in the air, the kite gives feedback and provides power. A redesigned bar and the new magnetic quick release system complete the whole package.
