Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Designed by the Ozone team, refinement of a work from Luc Armant in 2006. It's including a rescue system that open with reversed zippers. Foot take-off and landing is achieved by opening a front top zipper from which the legs can enter/exit. The fin is necessary in order to achieve enough yaw stability at higher speed. the air pressure intake is located at the very leading edge. Enough inside pressure is required to maintained good enough rigidity of the envellope. The Arms can be entered inside the envellope but are necessarly out when piloting is required. They remain a big part of the total harness drag.
