Fueled for fun and ready for lift off! ...the ideal recreational sports wing.
The initial design concept for the OCTANE was to create a glider that pilot's would
be able to enjoy in a wide variety of flying conditions.
We feel the OCTANE benefits from the most refined handling of any of OZONE’S
wings to date. From the earliest stages of the design the OCTANE displayed
fantastic handling characteristics, it was of prime importance for us to maintain
this great feeling in the production model. What you can expect is a smooth well
co-ordinated turn with progressive brake pressure as the bank angle increases.
With light application of the outer brake the turn can be flattened out to maximise
weak thermals, simply by releasing the outer brake you can wind it up in the
strongest of small thermals.
To instill confidence the wing has been designed to slice through turbulence
rather than suffering from the bumpy conditions.
The cross-braced technology utilised inside the canopy has enabled us to
minimise line drag, which has increased the performance considerably. This new
cross bracing system whilst reducing the amount of line surprisingly creates more
line attachment points spreading the load more evenly into the sail which, as our
extensive test flying has shown, reduces long term sail deformation.
