No such thing as a stupid question
Pulleys are okay I just prefer no pulleys.
In my opinion they are another point of weakness just need to be checked and clean so they work cleanly.
Hench why a few brand could be making the switch.

Apart from Ozone I guess most brands have kites with and without pulley in their lineup. Freestyle C-shapish kites usually have none for more direct feel, while the ones with lots of depower do have pulleys to allow a bigger change in the angle of attack. So you'll problably get more relevant answers if you tell us the style of kite you're after such as wakestyle/wave/race/all-rounder ?
