Hi, I'm interested if anyone has flown a B6 (10m) on a Ozone bar n lines set (2012)???
Def not a fan of Fone,s new bar and would like to give the kite another go befor writing it off.

Trim it properly in 15-20kts tops, shouldnt be a problem (check line lengths before flying). What didnt u like about the b6 bar?

it will ''work'' but you'll never get a similar flying performance and similar safety aspects unless you use another bar and lines with the same lines configuration and safety system. The Ozone bar is a rarer style of bar where the front lines start to split (the ''V'') very close to the bar and the kite flags on a single front line. You'll have much better results and the same safety system if you use similar bars such (with the front lines splitting much further from the bar and the safety system on both front lines) as with the North 4-line bar, Core, Cabrinha and many other brands.

Kite was trimmed correctly and flew fine but did notice some fluttering.
What I did not like about the bar -
Velcro quick release looks to me to be a bit outdated.
Never been a fan of the front lines splitting out of arms reach when self landing.
Couldn't see any way of untwisting your front lines?
An all white bar - its gonna get messy.
