The Ozone Apex V2 is a super dynamic hydrofoil board with all the stiffness, response and compact shaping needed for today’s most progressive kite foilers. It also doubles as a one-board solution for dock start pumping and tow foiling adventures.
Providing greater levels of response, the increased thickness and volume in the V2 model has also allowed for a lot of extra stiffness to be added, which is an essential part of a modern foilboard’s performance.
The outline has been updated and the nose rocker has also increased to improve forgiveness on touchdowns. The key development work in shaping was to ensure that stiffness throughout the board’s length was improved. The more responsive feel when pumping or carving is now apparent alongside the extra forgiveness under your front foot during manoeuvres.
The increased nose rocker and relatively large surface area towards the front inspire a feeling of forgiveness when kitefoiling. Together, these make for easy take-offs and transitions.
The Apex features a large EVA deckpad with front and back arch bumps and a wide tail kick, providing comfortable grip and intuitive reference to foot placement. It can be ridden strapless or strapped with reinforced M6 inserts offering various stance options.
Although thickness and volume have been increased, the Apex V2 remains very lightweight and is still considered a ‘low volume’ board. Therefore it can be easily positioned on its side for effortless strapless waterstarts.
Light enough to run with, the Apex V2 is also immediately stable and stiff under foot as soon as you press your weight down after a dock start. You can confidently throw everything into improving your skills as the robust construction can handle the accidental contact with the dock structures that inevitably happen in this discipline.
For tow foiling the excellent stiffness will give you a super direct connection with the foil, helping you to respond with foot pressure and stay ideally positioned on steepening, rolling swells.
Wakefoilers will also find the twin-tip construction exactly to their liking, and will also benefit from the light weight design and improved stiffness.
Carbon Foil Track:
A new custom full carbon foil track has replaced the deck washer system. This stiff and secure connection allows for a generous range of mast positions, ensuring you find the perfect balance point for your style. The built in stiffness and strength provides a direct connection and control of the hydrofoil underfoot.
