Built for riders stepping into the sport or pushing through the early stages of independent riding, the Ozone Element delivers a smooth blend of comfort, control and forgiving performance. It's moderate-to-low rocker line ensures early planing and easy upwind tracking. This means you spend less time struggling to walk back up the beach and more time riding. A forgiving, medium-soft Paulownia wood core absorbs heavy chop and vibrations, keeping your ride stable and saving your knees from fatigue. The refined tip shape and optimized outline dramatically reduces water spray to the face, allowing you to focus on your kite control, stay relaxed and ride longer. A double concave bottom shape enhances stability and grip, making messy or rough water conditions feel smooth and predictable. From your first solid water starts to linking smooth turns, mastering transitions, and sending your first jumps. The balanced, predictable feel underfoot will help you progress naturally into a confident and capable intermediate rider.
