Gday fellas,
Just wondering if anyone has had a chance to ride/review the new 2014 ozone c4 yet?

I believe Kitepower is receiving a shipment of C4 this week, will demo one and write a review ASAP!

We have a couple, not going too hard as yet just in case the "HARD CORE" C kiters feel there is too much bar pressure

Bar pressure = kite feedback.

True story.

Yep, we have got the shipping docs, so hopefully they arrive by tomorrow afternoon, otherwise it will be Monday/Tuesday. 10/12 for demo and more stock landing asap too.

Slightly more C-shape this year. I would say it's something of a mix between 012 and 013 models. Flys pretty similar to the 013, just a bit smoother and maybe a bit less bar pressure I thought.

No because it still has quite a decent bar pressure, just a bit less than before .

agree with rowdy on that one maybe a touch more slack than 13 and
slightly more bottom end

What are you expecting??? A North Dice review or something???

The 2014 C4 is excellent, the range is the best ever the top end is amazing and the low end is superb. This kite slacks when you wants it to but also turns really fast for loops but really slow for wake style. It boosts massive in jumps and loops but has minimal lift when wave riding. This is easily the best kite on the market, Ozone have done a great job, buy it.

C4 is a scam. You don't need bridles to relaunch easily, fuels come straight back up these days. Just get a fuel.

Most kites these days have pretty good range. I think you can get away with 2 kite quiver unless of course as you point out you want to unhook, in which case you at least need 3 to cover most conditions.
