Wide wind range and progressive de-power
The wide wind range and progressive de-power makes riding in variable or gusty conditions comfortable, while great upwind performance gives you more time to spend improving your skills!
First jumps
After the basics have been mastered and you’re looking to expand your game, you’ll be surprised at the jumping capabilities of the Catalyst. Smooth lift with precise feedback makes learning your first jumps easy.
Re-launch is simple
By turning the bar or using the re-launch balls on the leader lines the kite rolls over into the re-launch position.
New retracting rear bridle line system
A new retracting rear bridle line system reduces the chance of line tangles while adding rear line tension when riding sheeted out increasing reactivity to bar inputs.
Proven rip-stop material combination
The Catalyst features our proven rip-stop material combination. The rip-stop canopy material has an advanced ultra flex coating improving feedback in gustier conditions making for a smoother ride. The technical rip-stop dacron is super tough, used on the Leading Edge and Strut it improves strength, durability and longevity.
Fast Flow One-Pump
The Fast Flow One-Pump Inflation System makes set up and packing quick and easy. It features single point inflation/deflation and a high air flow rate between the Strut and Leading Edge, with a clip to seal the hose to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.
Ozone Element V1
Built for riders stepping into the sport or pushing through the early stages of independent riding, the Element delivers a smooth blend of comfort, control and forgiving performance. Build confidence, master the basics and new manoeuvres — with lasting performance for years of progression.
How the Element Solves Beginner Challenges
- Effortless Upwind Tracking: The moderate-to-low rocker line ensures early planing and easy upwind tracking — less time walking back up the beach, more time riding.
- Smooth Control Through Chop: A forgiving, medium-soft Paulownia wood core absorbs heavy chop and vibrations, keeping your ride stable and saving your knees from fatigue.
- No More Face Spray: The refined tip shape and optimised outline dramatically reduce water spray, so you can focus on kite control, stay relaxed and ride longer.
- Stability When You Need It: 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.
