The Catalyst V1 is designed for entry level and intermediate riders – it’s a confidence inspiring, fun and easy kite to ride that will make your progression in the sport fast, safe and enjoyable.

With accessible “sheet in and go” power delivery it is easy to get up on the board and ride. An excellent wind range lets you ride comfortably in variable or gusty conditions, refined profiles help you to ride upwind, enabling you to spend more time improving your skills! The Catalyst V1 will bring a smile to your face, the predictable power and lift makes your first jumps a breeze with easy timing and smooth landings.

We took a completely new approach towards this design to create a fun filled kite for new comers to progress to becoming solid intermediate riders. The Catalyst V1 has a unique Leading Edge arc and sweep shape, combined with a simple pulley-less bridle offering you freedom and flexibility on the water.

If you manage to drop your kite in the water the re-launch of the Catalyst V1 is incredibly simple and intuitive due to the unique shape of the leading edge. By turning the bar or using the Re-launch Balls on the leader lines, the kite will easily roll over into the re-launch position ready to take off from the water.

The Catalyst V1 Release System features our proven Front Line Flag Out release, the same release system on our entire water kite range. When the Chickenloop is released the kite will flag out to one front line, immediately stopping all power delivery from the kite.

As with all Ozone products, we pride ourselves with top of the line manufacturing in our own factory using the highest quality materials. The Catalyst V1 is constructed with quality proven Teijin D2 canopy material and Teijin Dacron providing a crisp feel and a strong kite.

Interessant, je regardait la catalyst justement mais je ne l'ai jamais essaye. Je me demandais est ce que la catalyst 2015 a une bonne plage basse? Pour ceux qui l'ont essaye, pouvez vous dire si la plage est bonne ou pas? Sur le chart ozone, il semble que la catalyste commence assez tard pour chaque grandeur mais c'est difficile a dire. Je regarde ce type de kite mais avec une tres bonne plage basse.

Merci!

Merci Denis, effectivement je voulais comparer avec la switchblade que je connais par exemple Je pensais que la catalyst 2015 aurait le meme low end que la SB mais ca a l'air que non, enfin je peux me tromper, tu me diras. La catalyst 2015 10m part-elle avant 14 noeuds? J'utilise les kites dans leurs plages basses c'est pourquoi ce critere est important pour moi.
Merci!
