Technical data

• The Ultralite 5 is available either with Linklites (the lightest option) or with black ” standard” 12mm risers with steel maillons which add around 120 grams to the total weight.
• The “Standard” risers are only available for the larger sizes, from 17 to 25. They are not available for the two smallest sizes, 13 and 15.

Ozone production times

Ozone wings are made to order. Ozone gives their current approximate production time on their website in working days, for example: “The current production time is approximately 30 days from order to shipping”. Add 1-3 weeks for shipping, and allow for unexpected delays. Some may claim shorter delivery times however we’re unsure how they can supply faster than the manufacturer themselves can produce and ship! ;-)

Ultralite 5: A NEW CHAPTER IN THE ULTRALITE LEGEND

The tech

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 “ground roll” of the Ultralite5 is the shortest of any light wing Ozone have flown — 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  weight

At 1.76kg in the 17m² size, the Ultralite5 is the lightest certified dual surface wing per m2 of flat area. The 15m² and 13m² (load test only) weigh in at just 1.59kg and 1.42kg respectively.

The pilot

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 has what you need. Its balance of performance and lightness cannot be beat. This is the most accessible, fun, and reliable hike & fly / run & fly wing Ozone have ever flown.

The lite legacy

Over the past 20 years of lightweight paraglider development here at OZONE, their light wings have launched from the summit of Everest, competed in every edition of the X-Alps, and broken vol-biv distance records around the world. The Ultralite5 offers enough performance to thermal, ridge soar, or even go XC with security and comfort and this new version will greatly increase your range of action thanks to significant performance gains, with no compromise on safety.
