PBKiteboarding.com - Your Foil Kite Specialists with 20+ Years of Experience with Ozone Kites in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Go much bigger and faster in less wind. This is THE gateway for advanced freeriders to enjoy even more epic sessions while rediscovering the awesome sensation of kite power that got them hooked in the beginning.

We’ve taken the most powerful elements of race kite design and re-tuned them to suit a wider range of riders, delivering rocket-fuelled big air twin-tip performance and fluid, high-speed riding on a hydrofoil.

Developed from the R1 V4 and Chrono DNA, the Mach 1 sets a new benchmark for freeride performance possibilities, especially in lighter winds.

WHY YOU FEEL IT:
Riders with prior experience using foil kites who are ready for more performance.
Twin-tip riders focused on big air and boosting performance.
Freeride foilers who want a high-performance kite that adapts to various riding styles.

“Our aim is to design foil kites with the same performance that we’ve always strived for, but with more accessibility. The very latest race kites, like our R1 V5, have become very technical to ride, but the great aspects of race kite performance has always been the fact they produce tremendous amounts of power and lift with a huge wind range.   Re-imagining how race kite performance could benefit freeriders became a very logical place for us to start our development of the Mach1. We’ve made everything far more user-friendly than a race kite, while maintaining the high performance benefits.”

FLYING LINE LENGTH
We recommend flying the Mach1 with 17m or 21m lines depending on conditions, discipline and rider preferences.

Choose to ride with 21m lines as an easy standard length for your first rides, in lighter winds or on larger kite sizes for all round riding.

When using 17m lines the Mach1’s handling becomes more dynamic, responsive and direct - well suited to hydrofoiling. Shorter lines also increase jumping performance as you’ll feel an increased connection to the kite, while in stronger winds the upwind ability will also be enhanced.

PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING
Foiling Adaptability
Functions seamlessly across different hydrofoil sizes. Shorter lines (17m) provide more direct handling, while longer lines (using the 4m extensions, making a line length of 21m) offer extra power.

Great Depower

The Mach1’s efficient rotation benefits its ability to depower through a wide range of angle-of-attack changes.

User Experience

Easy transition for experienced tube kite riders as the feeling is intuitive and tuned to be more similar.




“The wind range of these kites is so good, especially the low end which makes it possible to practice multiple rotations in otherwise impossible conditions. It’s the best twin-tip foil kite I’ve ever tried for big air riding progression.”

KEY FEATURES AND DESIGN
Higher-Aspect-Ratio
Improved efficiency, greater hangtime and increased performance in light winds.

Refined Bridle System
Reduced bridle attachment points for easier setup while maintaining stability and control.

Durable Material Selection
Harder-wearing canopy and thicker bridle materials reduce tangles and increase longevity while maintaining lightweight performance.

Smooth & Progressive Power Delivery
Linear power output makes for more controlled and predictable handling.

Optimized for Different Line Lengths
Works exceptionally well with the advised 17 or 21m line lengths, adapting to riding style and conditions.

15 & 18M
Very powerful light wind kites, still capable of a great big air experience.
Ozone Mach 1 Canada
11 & 13M
Offering more manoeuvrability and playfulness. Superb big air in lightwinds, huge hangtimes and extremely wide wind range.
Ozone Mach 1 Canada
7 & 9M
These sizes are more based on the Chrono lower aspect design, compared to the bigger Mach 1 sizes, which have the higher-aspect R1 V4 shape. Being smaller, the 7 and 9m are for use in stronger winds and have a crazy ability to manage power. They also offer more manoeuvrability for freeride hydrofoiling. So these retain the Chrono’s smaller size, superb ease- of-use and kite looping ability.



“Using the 9 and 11m Mach1 was actually my first experience using a foil kite. After watching so many clips of riders doing crazy high jumps and being able to stay in the air for so long made me really want to try. It only took me a session to get used to the feeling, but I immediately noticed how much longer I was staying in the air. “I’ve ridden the 9 and 11 metre sizes for several sessions and these kites have already helped me make progress. I’d love to have 30 knot conditions all the time, but that’s not possible. It’s crazy how much performance these kites have in lighter winds. I can now look at the forecast so differently and am super stoked to go out in 15 knots and get way more really good sessions.”

TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENTS
New Valve System
Improved air intake for faster inflation, and more internal pressure for better water and land relaunch.

Brake Line Adjustments
Three settings for optimizing control depending on twin-tip, all-round or hyrdofoil riding.

Closed Cell Construction
Ensures stability and better relaunch in varied conditions.

WHY HAS THE MACH1 REPLACED THE CHRONO IN OUR RANGE?
Given that our latest high-performance hydrofoil race kite, the R1 V5, is now highly specialised for hydrofoil racing with a two-line setup, minimal overhead lift and is built with ultra-lightweight materials, we saw an opportunity to merge race kite performance with freeride durability. We wanted to create a robust machine that excels in big air while maintaining the efficiency that tube kites can’t match.

When the R1 V4 was still current, many advanced twin-tip riders were choosing its high-aspect design for big air and hangtime.

Recognising the demand for a freeride foil kite with race-like performance, we took the DNA of the R1 V3 & V4 models and re-tuned things - removing race-specific constraints while reinforcing durability and enhancing big air capability.

MACH1 VS CHRONO: PERFORMANCE & HANDLING DIFFERENCES
Higher Aspect Ratio & Increased Cell Count
Due to its higher aspect ratio and increased cell count compared to the Chrono, the Mach1 delivers better performance in light winds, a broader range, and smoother power generation.

Boosting & Hangtime
With increased lift and linear power output, the Mach1 excels in big air, maintaining power and speed efficiently across various line lengths.

Turning Characteristics
Unlike the Chrono’s pivotal turns, the Mach1’s higher-aspect design generates more power in turns while maintaining control and precision.

THE MACH1 IS THE ULTIMATE FREERIDE FOIL KITE FOR RIDERS SEEKING HIGH-PERFORMANCE

The Mach1 isn’t just an upgrade - it’s a more redefined experience, surprisingly easy to handle and built for riders looking to elevate their performance in freeride and big air disciplines. Quite simply, it sets a new benchmark in performance foil kiting.

BRAKE LINE SETTINGS
Three settings allow you to fine tune kite feedback and bar pressure to your liking. It is quick and easy to change with no extra lines to add or remove.

1: HYDROFOIL/SHORT LINES

The hydrofoil/short lines setting is the upper knot on the PB1 line. Recommended for hydrofoiling and when using lines less than 21m. This setting decreases bar pressure and offers a longer lifting period, more suitable for foiling manoeuvres.

2: ALL-ROUND

The All-Round setting is the middle knot on the PB1 line (factory setting). This offers an ideal balance in performance and feeling for most riders and conditions.

3: TWIN-TIP

The twin-tip setting is the lower knot on the PB1 line.
This setting increases bar pressure and offers a sharper, more direct feeling, perfect for twin-tip riding. If you prefer a heavier and direct feel this could be the setting for you.
