The Reo’s unique flying characteristics allow you to maximise the potential of every wave, giving you the freedom to smash the lip, clear a section, carve turns or snap in the pocket. Fast direct handling and perfect drift combined with amazing de-power and the ability to absorb gusts means you can choose exactly where you want to place yourself on a wave to make that next move.
The Reo V5 features Ozone's innovative variable bridle geometry. The new bridle settings extend the kites operating range, bringing another level of versatility to this already outstanding design.
Setting 1
The way we know and love the Reo - a balanced and refined feeling from the kite with good forward speed perfect for most conditions, and excelling in cross to cross-off winds. The kite can sit further to the edge of the wind window when de-powered, drifting as you ride down the line. Setting 1 is the upper knot on the VBG Pigtails.
Setting 2
A new feeling and characteristics - the kite sits a little further back in the wind window and tackles onshore conditions with ease. Increased bar pressure improves feeling from the kite when a wave is pushing with the wind. If you prefer a slightly heavier feel this could be the setting for you. Setting 2 is the lower knot on the VBG Pigtails.
The Reo V5 features Ozone's new stronger and lighter strut construction. The wingtip shape has also been refined with the new tapered tip and slim line deflector. Ozone understand the importance of aerodynamics and weight saving especially on a kite where drift is imperative, so every detail has been refined to be as light as possible while maintaining the strength and integrity you expect from an Ozone product.
They have maintained the quick and easy re-launch - by turning the bar or using the re-launch balls on the leader lines, the Reo V5 will roll over and take off from the water in an instant.

This foil, and indeed all the Code gear really ticks the boxes for me. It goes amazingly and is built to last. Backed up by great customer service from Poseidon Watersports. Already eyeing up which one to get next (although for a one foil quiver, both the 720s and 850s would both work great!).
Its incredible! For myself being 88kg. I find the take offs as easy as my 75L board. It’s unbelievable. The narrow design has opened the world of a smaller board without sacrificing the ball ache of hard sticky takeoffs
For prone I can glide into unbroken waves. It gives me alot more time to think about popping up.
Game changer for me! Since I've had it, I've not used any of my other boards.
1 board quiver?
For me….. i think so!!! Very happy
Love it
Took it out for maiden flight, gusting 25. Solid shape even fully de powered.
Reversed fixing points thru me a bit
Poseidon were top class. Thanks
