Your path to freeride progression. The OZONE Base V3 delivers a blend of performance and enjoyment that will help you increase your confidence and riding level quickly and smoothly.
Your path to freeride progression
The accessible feel will keep you inspired to hit the water session after session. The Base V3 is the board of choice for entry level to intermediate freeriders who want to have as much fun as possible.
- Intuitive, comfortable and very progressive ride feel
- Easy upwind performance
- Excellent handling in chop
- Superb control and spray management
- Designed to deliver fast improvements for entry-level to intermediate riders
Our main goal was to further enhance the accessibility of the Base V2 while incorporating more comfort into the V3 model, without compromising on progressive performance.
Adapting to riders’ evolving skills, the Base V3 excels across various progression stages. The transition from a single concave to a new double concave bottom shape has improved the handling ease, particularly in adapting to choppy conditions.
The Base V3 is now able to ride higher on the water with less rider effort required to maintain control in chop or less than ideal water states.
Control and spray management
Working in conjunction with the double concave, Ozone have fine-tuned the outline taper in the tips to minimise spray in choppy waters. The result is a smoother ride with a consistent feel.
An easy and yet inspiring feel remains guaranteed. The moderate-to-low rocker line allows for swift planing and easy upwind riding. The Base V3’s forgiving medium-soft flex pattern ensures a comfortable ride, even in challenging conditions.
Discover the power of a strong foundation
The Base V3 model focuses on intuition and progression, offering a reliable and enjoyable ride for any kiter who aims to improve their skills.
Choose the Base V3 and you will quickly build the confidence to explore various wind and water conditions, smoothly progressing beyond initial carving turns to nailing more challenging transitions and jumps.
