Ozone Addict Paraglider
Some tables, some simple graphics and a great pic of the Ozone Addict! Like a bit of arm-chair paragliding? Among these paragliding DVDs from Amazon there's a couple that have copped a bad review, but could still be worth a look. A few are very recent, having been released in 2010.

An Ozone Addict returning to Terra Firma. Reminds me of an old old guy who hated flying, who said 'I like to keep my feet on Terra Firma - the more Firma, the less Terra'. ;-)

Ever Flown This Wing?
If so, feel free to share anything you like about the experience here. What were your first impressions?
Please state your experience level, just to put your comments in perspective.
For example, you might be a low-time pilot flying a new wing for the first time and loving it!

Numerical Data
For all you number-crunchers out there, feast on this:| pilot take-off weight | 80-100 kg | (178-221 lbs) | | wing weight | 5.6 kg | (12.4 lbs) | | wing area (flat) | 26.3 m² | (283 ft²) | | wing area (projected) | 22.4 m² | (241 ft²) | | wing span (flat) | 12.1 m | (40 ft) | | wing span (projected) | 9.6 m | (31 ft) | | aspect ratio (flat) | 5.6 | | | aspect ratio (projected) | 4.1 | | | min sink | 1.0 m/s | (197 fpm, 3.6 kph, 1.9 knts) | | best glide ratio | 8.6:1 | | | speed min | 24 kph | (15 mph, 13 knts) | | speed trim | 38 kph | (24 mph, 21 knts) | | speed max | 55 kph | (34 mph, 30 knts) |
Non-Numerical Data, from DHV
If numbers don't excite you, try this:| take off handling | easy | | roll damping | average | | control travel | average | | agility | average | | spiral dive entry | average | | spiral dive exit | turn continues through 180 - 360 degrees | | landing behavior | easy | | B-line stall entry | easy | | B-line stall recovery | spontaneous | | big ears entry | easy | | big ears recovery | not spontaneously |
All the above were recorded when this Ozone paraglider was flown at max weight.
Color Schemes
The simple graphics below represent the available color schemes for the Ozone Addict. I hope this approach is useful for getting a good idea of the colors when quickly comparing wings. Most paragliders have a basic wing color plus something different adorning the leading edge. You might be able to get a detailed look at one of the color schemes from the manufacturer's picture further down this page. As far as I know, the underside of each design is all-white.
blue, gray-white-black leading edge
red, gray-white-black leading edge
green, gray-white-black leading edge
orange, gray-white-black leading edge
yellow, gray-white-black leading edge
