Firstly this post is in no way aimed at bagging Ozone. I finally have the replacement kite. It was replaced because the kites have consecutive serial numbers and overinflation at the factory could not be ruled out. Kami ,there has not been a gag order put on me.
1st reason for post
I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread because I believe that all this input is the reason why Ozone has made this decision. I was told of this decision on 23 July, im sorry ive kept silent for so long but I think you guys can understand why.
2nd reason for post
There have been a couple of changes made to the V8 Edge
Most importantly LE closure seam has reinforcing from closest strut to wingtip all the way across the kite to closest strut on opposite side. This reinforcing is jigjag stitched both sides 10 mm away from seam
The zipper on LE also has been covered over better to prevent it rubbing on canopy when folded up
3rd reason for post
Ozone feels that I am happy with this outcome , if this happened 2 months after putting claim in without forums YES I would be happy . My feeling right now is relief that this is over.
Thanx again guys for your contributions to this thread
Cheers Gerry
