Everyone at Ozone continues to be driven by our passion for flying, our love of adventure
and our quest to see Ozone’s paraglider development create better, safer and more versatile
paragliders.
The design team consists of David Dagault, Luc Armant, Fred Pieri, Russell Ogden, Honorin
Hamard, Emilia Plak and Alex Mateos. Dav has a wealth of experience in competition flying, XC,
XAlps and paraglider design. Luc, a dedicated XC and competition addict has a background in
naval architecture. Fred, our resident geek is a mathematician, mechanical engineer and vol
Biv specialist. Russ is a competition pilot and test pilot with 1000s of hours testing experience.
Honorin has been flying since he was 13, naturally talented, he has already become world
champion. Between them, they bring a wealth of knowledge, ideas and experience and work
closely together in the design and testing process.
Former female World champion, Emilia Plak manages the paramotor department, she is
helped by Alex Mateos. As two of the finest pilots in the world holding World, European and
French Paramotoring champion titles between them, they offer valuable advice and feedback
throughout the development process, helping to produce the perfect blend of safety, speed
and performance.
Mike Cavanagh is the boss and multiple winner of the UK XC league, when not out flying he
generally keeps control of the mayhem. He is helped by Jean Christophe Skiera (JC) who
manages our distribution network and the product range. Promotion and marketing are co-
ordinated by BASE jumping legend Matt Gerdes. Back in the office Karine Marconi, Chloe Vila
and Isabelle Martinez run the show. These wonderful ladies look after the ordering system,
the dealers, the design team and the general day to day running of the company - without
them it would be chaos.
Our own manufacturing facility in Vietnam is headed up by Dr Dave Pilkington who works
relentlessly manufacturing gliders and producing prototypes as well as researching materials
and manufacturing processes for our future products. He is backed up by a superb team
managed by Khanh and Phong with over 1000 production staff.
