oh they are starting to reuse kite names now as they reached the end of the list? Wipika Apm'ed anyone. Loved that kite - until I ripped it in half mid air on a huge jump ;-) .
Funny you should mention that. I owned a Wipika Amp - I thought it was a terrible kite. I had been riding Airblasts & then bought a 12m Amp. I found it did not de-power like the Airblasts. It was way more fancy in materials & finish than the Airblast, with an elaborate bag & bar ... but I didn't like the way it flew at all.

Ozone C4 is out and they now call it the AMP...

Why? Because of Ruben you think?

Looking at the shapes, the C4 looks more extreme to me, and I didn't think it was that extreme for a C-kite to be honest. I think it's more of an image thing, just like when the Catalyst turned into the Enduro, and Ruben can help there.

I always take the marketing stories with a grain of salt.

I guess the sizes are done so for the benefit of the 5 line mode, hope they are even as my old 7m C4 is super tiny to the 9.

I think he will continue with mystic, it's the Lieuwe Oceana that could be the collectors item now.
