Look, this is a serious thread. Can we please keep on topic - speculating wistfully and wildly about the 2014 C4, and perhaps the new bar.
(P.S. totally agree with Eppo about the swivels. One more thing to add weight and cost and to break/stuff up. KISS)
Fine...
I speculate the C4 will be dropped in 2014.
End of topic
Lol

Dammit. Do I have to be serious now?
Today I didn't give a fark!
Then I had a red bull.....
Now I don't give a flying Fark!
OK here goes.
I think the flysurfer Cronix might be the 10m kite for me instead of the C4....

Oh plummet
Now your pimping redbull
Big call plummett. Big call.
One thing is for sure the chronix promo vid has to be one of the best I have ever seen! It gets me amped and cranked every time!
Will be looking into these kites for sure.
Imagine if redbull made kites?! they would fly themselves.
Any way. I find myself reaching for the 13m edge more 16-20 knots because the 10m c4 bores me in those winds. today was 15-20 then gusting to 25-28 in the squalls. I really should have been on the 10 but I rigged the 13 and weathered the squalls and rode out the low end because I couldn't be arsed with a boring 15-20.
So as I was teabagging my arse in the squalls I thought I need a gruntier kite than the 10c4. But I don't really think I want the 10 edge... too high aspect. The cat in not dynamic enough......
God forbid may have to search outside the ozone lineup to find what I want?!!! seems crazy but maybe it is what it is.
A man walks into a bar and asks for a glass of water. The barman draws a gun and points it at the man. The man says thank you and leaves.
What happened?

Yep with ya on the 10m my man. God forbid indeed.
A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and proceeds to fire it at the other patrons. "Why?" asks the confused, surviving waiter amidst the carnage. The panda pauses on his way out, produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual, and tosses it over his shoulder. "Well, I"m a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation: "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
That reminds me of that old joke of what yr average Aussie male and wombat have in common.... They both eat roots and leaves
Does anybody know a release date yet? Is it true that ozone release their different kites one at a time rather then a complete range of kites at once ?
Yes. I think the c4 was one of the last kites last year. I preordered mine and got them around late November
i just put a small scew in my quick release . Being carefull not to scew into the chicken loop .it is more dangerous but doesnt activate when not needed or needed lol
yeah eppo i was sick of activating quick release when rehooking after unhooking . As ststed it is dangerous and not recommended .

a bit unnecessary. I might have activated the release like once after hundreds of unhooked crashes. Not hard to grab just above the chicken loop but whatever floats your boat i guess...
Question is, does this new safety system allow the lines to untwist?? Looks as if the the new push away system might interfere with the rotation of the safety line?

hmmm.... you may be right. no untwisting function. Stink.
prretty sure it'll be in conjunction with the 2014 reo's
Which are set to be released when?
Seriously. .. surely thats not true. A video out on a bar that will be released in 2015. Why not with the new kite. They will fall behind everyone else dont you think
That was a joke matty aimed at ozone. They had one in the pipeline a year ago but weren't happy with the manufacturers quality etc hence why it has taken so long.
Surely there is a way to untwist your lines in the new system.
