It's been longtime comming, work over a few years. Look at her now - acro girl 🥰 Progression takes time, paragliding is a lifelong journey, it is not a sprint.
After a long wet and windy winter, and after a short XC earlier in the month, I finally got out on a half decent forecast... I didn't make my 150km goal by a long way, but it was still a fun flight in quite tricky conditions... PS. Apologies for the sound being too quiet in places, I don't know what was going on with the GoPro!

The all new Ultralite 5 features an incredible 0.8 glide performance increase and 7 km/h speed increase while being 100g lighter than its predecessor. With the addition of 2 new sizes, the range now spans from 13m² to 25m², covering every pilot and every mode of ascent & descent. An all new Ultralite-specific SharkNose is the core of this next generation design. It has improved the inflation, performance, comfort, and ease of use. The take-off sequence of the Ultralite5 is massively improved - you will be airborne in fewer steps than ever, an important factor for mountain take-offs. A new arc has made the wing more compact, with more intuitive and direct handling. New panel shaping and an improved wing twist have reduced drag significantly, improving True Performance and efficiency with no cost to safety. The Ultralite5 weighs only 1.76kg in the 17m² size, the 15m² and 13m² (load test only) weigh in at just 1.59kg and 1.42kg respectively. Whether you are obsessed with ultra-light wings for run & fly, hike & fly, or mountaineering, or just looking for your first ultralight setup, the Ultralite5 is the perfect answer.

In the late 1990s, one Spanish family changed the entire story of Paragliding. By pushing the limits of the sport far beyond what we imagined to be possible, they gave us a new vision of paragliding, allowing us to experience free flying through the lens of acrobatic flight. Los Rodriguez. “Learn something new every day, that has always been the game” Raul Rodriguez “Flying for me is many things, it is family because my whole family flies and in a way, I consider all paragliding pilots to be family as well, we are a big family around the world” Felix Rodriguez “Flying is the ultimate expression of being able to be myself in the air, it is a dream come true everyday” Horacio Llorens Ozone People is a film series that brings our audience into the flying lives of our friends who find their essence in the air.

"I started caving when I was 14 years old and I was doing it quite intensely. But then in the late 90s I began to see paragliders flying over exactly the same mountain where I used to cave so much. They looked like little mosquitoes hanging over the the mountain when I was crossing the Margaret Bridge in Budapest.Every time I crossed I was looking to see those paragliders. It’s so crazy to think that just from basically the passion for flying I went from, you know, a normal pilot soaring the little hills in Hungary to actually win the Paragliding Aerobatic World Cup and invent new maneuvers" From Caves to Clouds with Pal Takats Ozone People is a film series that brings our audience into the flying lives of our friends who find their essence in the air.

“I remember driving up to launch for my first mountain flights with a mix of dread and excitement, but I caught my first thermal that day, and flew with a red-tail hawk. That was it, mind exploded. For me, flying is a fresh way to explore the world on a really macro scale. It's quite a contrast from my 30 years spent exploring the micro scale in rock climbing. I love that feeling of nervous uncertainty at the start of a big flight. I love encountering the unexpected. I love trying to build mental models for a chaotic and invisible force! I love the way you have to adapt and evolve with the changing conditions of the day. I love optimizing and pushing my psychological and intellectual abilities. I love how outrageous and otherworldly it feels to be transported long distances with wind, string and fabric. And I love that paragliding has a wonderful community of people that I love dearly” World-famous climber turned paragliding addict, Cedar Wright Ozone People is a new film series that brings our audience into the flying lives of our friends who find their essence in the air.

THE NEW RAPIDO 3X ~ (enable "Volume On") The R3X is an uncompromising speedwing created for intermediate-to-advanced level pilots seeking high performance and low pack-weight. It is an evolution of the Rapido 3, with increased roll sensitivity, dramatically reduced weight, and an innovative new riser design. Significantly shorter line lengths and a wider piloting stance serve speedriders as well as foot-launch pilots seeking a more capable wing for both summer and winter flying.

The Arc has been optimized for winter Speedriding in every step of its design - empowering pilots to aggressively ski even the steepest of mountains, while remaining intimately connected to their wing. The Arc’s shortened line-lengths, extensive trim-range, and deep-brake power all allow active skiing, while maintaining the ability to rapidly take-flight at a moment’s notice For more visit: https://flyozone.com/speed/products/gliders/arc/
The Photon brings a new era for the Sport class (EN C). All of Ozone's know-how in 2-liner designs has been applied to this wing to make it the missing link between conventional 3-liners and competition models. True Performance was our focus during the extensive development phase to produce practical usability and comfort throughout the speed range in real XC conditions. The handling, stability, and ease of use are as important to us as the performance numbers, which are close to those of the Zeno 2. Nonetheless, collapse behaviour and passive safety are solidly within the EN C category. Welcome to the future. For more visit: https://flyozone.com/paragliders/products/gliders/photon
