Twan one of our original riders that is based in Mui Ne Vietnam every winter instructing gives his feedback on the 09's. Twan was one of Davids main testers over the past generations of Instincts and has been lending his kites out to anyone that wants to try them.... read on below for the feedback
We we’re lucky to recieve the first 09 Instincts 1st week in Jan. The fourth generation of the Instinct series is definately something special! Where to start to give a good impression? People who have been riding Instincts the last couple of years for sure have noticed that build in Instinct feeling so the big question was does it have that on 4 lines? The answer is YES, Its still there :) 4 lines, easy and clean set up and the same feeling ,, jippie!
First one I tried was the 9m Sport +, lots of changes this year and the graphics look sick .The kite itself is super clean and rigid! So for the Sport + the bar feeling is way better now ,always good feel where the kite is and progressive feedback on the bar! Its even more easy to fly this year with I think a big + is the unhooked feeling! Not much pull on the bar anymore if you want to try newschool tricks. It has more power wich is easily controlable sheeting in and out.. the on and off feeling is gone. I have been riding the 11m most days now and its insane ! I reckon it has 15% more hangtime than previous models wich gives you enough time to do your tricks and land them !
The Light XC is a surpise also ,.. no more flapping, turns on a dime and has plenty power! The kite looks super clean in the air and is fast with that same prgressive feeling on the bar. I’m looking forward getting this on out in the waves!
The Edge 11m ... just took it out for a 15 min try! The jumps are even a bit longer and floatier than before! It’s still a fast flying kite with the same clean design as the Light and Sport . We are still waiting for one of those big wind days to take it out and see what extreme jumping potential it has this year !
Lots of people try the kites here and they all come back of the water with a big smile. Andre the russian about the 11m Edge: "This kite I like , very jump high and long" So for us in Vietnam we are all very stoked and pleased to ride the new kites ,easy is the word this year.
Enjoy! Twan In Vietnam :)
Some other quotes in from happy riders >>
Taro Kawakami ( Japan ) Has riden Ozones since the start and has become a true Light fan. "First i try 9m Sport and i like a lot. Then i demo light and i love more. No flappy flappy,fast and power"
Andy French (UK)
"I normally ride the Edge but tried the 9 m Sport today, what a changed kite. It still has an Ozone feel but a different Sport feel ,the turns were smooth and slower which i liked, great for free style."
Skatoor (USA and Vietnam)
"09 8 Light is super stable ,predictable and responsive. Kite of the year in my opinion"
Paul Clayton (UK and Vietnam ,Ozone importer)
"This is the first year i have not tested the kites with David so I was especially excited to try them and i was not dissapointed. I was amazed in the change to the light , higher aspect and redesigned it has loads of power and is great on the waves. The Sport is now a true freestyle machine, unhook and a smile comes from ear to ear, and now you can nail those new tricks with ease. The Edge has only been riden a bit as we are having super strong winds now but has the Edge feeling, super jumps and very quick, i can not wait to ride the 7m and 9 m "

Excelent kite.... And I love it! :) Last year was a small engine wit turbo.. This feels like a V8, thicker neoprene on the clips to.. POPing it was unreal! Great light wind, low end power. But when the wind came and you can feel how much more stable it is. And how the power just increases gradually without any surges of power.. In gusts it just continues to pull, doesn’t move an inch!
