Step 1

. Lay mushroomed wing 

on the ground. It is best to start 
from the mushroomed position 
as this reduces the dragging 
of the leading edge across the 
ground. 

Step 2.

 Group LE reinforcements 

with the A tabs aligned, make 
sure the plastic reinforcements 
lay side by side.

Step 3.

 Lay wing on its side and Strap 

LE...Note the glider is NOT folded 
in half; it is folded with a complete 
concertina from tip to tip. It is really 
important to not stress the middle cell or 
bend the plastic too tightly.

Packing

To prolong the life of your wing and to keep the plastic reinforcements in the best possible condition it is very important to 

pack the wing carefully.

Ozone recommends to use the concertina packing method exactly as shown so that all of the cells rest alongside each 

other and the plastic reinforcements are not unnecessarily bent. Using an Ozone Saucisse or Saucisse light pack will help 

preserve the life of the wing and aid with the speed and ease of packing.

If using a Saucisse pack go to Step 8.

Step 7.

 Now place the folded wing into the stuff sack.

Step 4.

 Group together the middle/trailing 

edge of the wing by sorting the folds near 
the B, C and D tabs.

Step 6.

 Fold the wing with 3 or 4 folds whilst being 

careful to not crush the LE.

Step 5.

 Once the LE and rear of the wing have 

been sorted, turn the whole wing on its side.
