Description
Next Generation 2 Line Technology
Forget everything you think you know about the compromises in 2-Line paraglider designs! The Ozone Zeolite is easy to launch, easy to land in small/restricted LZs, and has the most comfortable B-handle control Ozone have experienced, and handling that is incredibly agile and precise in the core.
This is a new breed of 2-Line design, offering competition level performance in an extremely light and compact package. Weighing in at under 3kg with an aspect ratio of 6.7, the Zeolite delivers the performance and reliability needed for the Red Bull X-Alps, the most gruelling race in the world.
Light Performance / Competition – EN D
- Designed for the Red Bull X-Alps athletes
- Easy to launch, easy to land in small/restricted LZs
- Incredibly comfortable B-handle control
- Lowest line consumption and lowest line drag ever in the Gin range
Performance and Tech
The modified Zeno profile provides high stability throughout the speed range, excellent chordwise cohesion in turbulent conditions, and is forgiving at a high angle of attack. The Zeolite has the lowest line consumption and lowest line drag of any wing Ozone have ever produced, making its performance similar to the Zeno/Z-Alps. Excellent sail cohesion and true 2-line B Riser control mean superb climbing characteristics and high efficiency on turbulent glides.
Launch
The inflation is as easy as the LM5. Nil-wind inflation requires only one or two steps. It is totally acceptable to inflate from a condensed, restricted, or even “messy” layout on the ground. In stronger winds, the wing can be inflated from a ball, or by using the cobra method. The landing characteristics have also been improved — parachutal stall is easy to initiate, yet the profile is forgiving and always eager to re-fly making it the easiest of Ozone’s X-Alps wings to top land.
