Ozone Submarine

The submarine is a low-drag, high-performance harness for serious XC and Competition flying. It is the result of a 5-year development process which included extensive testing, wind-tunnel research, and a prolonged beta phase with cooperation from some of the world’s top competition pilots.

The competitive Paragliding World Cup format has allowed us to fly certified versions of the harness to test and develop the harness in real conditions. We thank the pilots that were willing to try the different versions whilst the design team figured what worked and what did not. We must thank the PWC for being a great competition series that helps progress the performance and safety of our sport.

We think the final design in its various sizes has proven that replacing your current harness with the Submarine will likely result in a larger performance advantage than updating your wing with a newer model. We think it is a big step forward in harness design and we look forward to all pilots being able to benefit from this 5 years of development work.

The Submarine is now in general production. To get yours, please ask your local Ozone dealer. We have already had a lot of enquiries and have increased our production capacity in anticipation of demand, but as this is a highly technical harness to produce we ask pilots for their patience as the team in production work to fulfil the orders as fast as possible.
Designer's Notes

    Low profile fully inflated envelope with foam-filled dynamic pressure air intake.
    Low parasitic drag once inflated and set in position.
    High parasitic drag once fully open and piloted in an upright position, offering Anti-G characteristics for descent.
    Immediately deflates after bending your legs in case of strong turbulence or wing collapse.
    Good yaw stability at all speeds.
    Good instrument visibility in most light.
    Balanced agility and roll stability.
    Fully self-supported seat and foot plate, refined from the Exoceat.
    Adjustable pitch angle with easily adjustable webbing and multiple fore & aft ballast pockets.
    Two side rescue containers with easy extraction.
    Features the innovative Neo Koroyd back protector.
    Large "flight deck" is fully adjustable in pitch angle.
    Main cockpit is 4.5 Liters volume with two front outside pockets.
    Optional extra cockpit, 2.0 Liter.
    Under seat storage, 1.0 Liter.
    Two Side pockets, 1.5 liter each.
    Two upper pockets, 0.6 liter each.
    Back storage, 13 liters, including 2 liter drinking pocket.
    Competition speed bars with 3 one-foot steps, fully settable to any wing configuration.
    Huge potential range of speed bar to be compatible with wings using the longest speed systems.

Optional Spare Parts / Components:

    Submarine structure comprising seats, inside storage and rescue pockets
    Submarine envelope (the airtight skin of the submarine)
    Wood seat plate
    Pair of back bars
    Main Cockpit, 4.5 liters
    Instrument plate
    Rescue handles
    Foot Plate
    3 one-foot Speed bar
    Foot cubes, 3 different sizes, to adapt the various foot-plate to envelope nose distance
