OZONE Flow Wing V1

FLOW STATE…

Sitting between the Fly (entry level to intermediate freeride / wave riding) and the Flux (high end, full speed performance freeride), the Flow is a brand new wing to the line-up.

When it comes to improving the fluidity and ease of your 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 doesn’t need to be removed after your session.

Although it replaces the WASP in the range, the Flow is an entirely different concept, based on the handling advantages programmed in the Flux’s DNA. The Flow, however, 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 intermediates put a 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.

WHAT YOU FEEL

• Control and comfort, even during long sessions
• Smooth overhead, excellent control during tacks and gybes
• Adaptability to perform in different wave conditions
• Increased control when flagged out
• Direct response handling
• Large power range
• Speed and lift for jumping

WHY YOU FEEL IT

• Reduced span and lower aspect ratio provide accessible all-round performance
• EVA covered, rigid, carbon fibre handles offer direct control and comfort
• Semi-rigid de-power/surf handle
• Stiff airframe for direct response performance
• Spanwise seam orientation helps spread the loads into the sail, reducing deformation.
• Expert sewing and material placements ensure light weight performance with integrated strength

PROGRESSION

The Flow has a responsive, lightweight and easy feel. Delivering both progressive power with good low end torque to get you up on foil, it also has range to handle stronger winds and speed without losing control. Highly manoeuvrable and yet incredibly stable overhead, 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.

ON THE WAVE

If your primary aim is riding waves and swells, whatever the size and quality, the Flow is for you. The span and aspect-ratio are perfectly tuned to help prevent wing tip touchdowns and to provide a beautiful centre of power when riding one handed.

The extended front handle is also particularly good for wave riding where you might quickly want to switch between powered up sailing and drifting. In small wave conditions, or in cross-onshore wind swell, it’s not always worth the big movement to grab the surf handle. The Flow’s longer front handle allows you instead to find a balance point to steer the wing one handed and still benefit from having a little 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 Flow’s compact design, tight sail, on-tap power, rigid handles, excellent manoeuvrability and impressive boost capabilities make it a great choice for freestylers. It’s fast for spinning and is excellent if you want to get inverted as the sail behaves well when going from positive to negative loads. No matter if you are just starting to get air or 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 because this is a wing designed for constant action.

As with all our products we were able to save weight but still ensure integrated strength is built in throughout. The Flow is made with great care by the hands of our expert team of sewers in our manufacturing facility.

TUNED WITH CUSTOMISED DESIGN SOFTWARE

Using our 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 sail.

Each part of the Flow’s 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 without restraint.
