Storage and Transport
Always store all your flying equipment in a dry room, protected from direct heat. Your wing
should be dry before being packed away. Moisture, heat and humidity are the worst elements
for damaging your glider. Storing a damp glider in your car under the sun would be terrible
for example.
If you land in salt water, you must first rinse it thoroughly with clean fresh water. Dry the wing
completely, preferably out of the sun, in the wind. Never use a hair dryer, etc.
Take care that no insects get packed away with the wing. They may eat the cloth and make
holes in a bid to escape. They can also leave acidic deposits if they die and decompose.
Transport the wing in the supplied bags. Keep away from oils, paints, chemicals or detergents.
Cleaning
Any kind of wiping/scratching can damage the coating of the cloth. We recommend to not
clean the wing, but if you do have to, use a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of water
and use gentle movements little by little across the surface.
Wing Repairs
Always let a registered dealer, professional repair centre or the manufacturer carry out any
major or complex repairs, especially those near seam margins.
If you damage the sail:
If the rip is small and in the middle of a panel however you can fix it yourself. You’ll find all the
materials in the repair kit you need. The fabric can be simply mended with the sticky rip stop/
spinnaker tape. When cutting out the patches allow ample overlap of the tear and make sure
both sides are different sizes. Make sure to round off each corner of the patches.
You can find more information about repairing your wing on the Ozone website, including step
by step instructions with pictures.

chemical cleaners.
