Ozone AFTERBURNER Parawing
Description
Ozone Afterburner Parawing
The Ozone Afterburner sets the industry benchmark for raw speed, upwind efficiency, and high-performance parawinging. Engineered for dedicated downwinders, foil racers, and advanced freeriders, the Afterburner turns previously grueling upwind grinds into blistering, fast transits—leaving you with full energy reserves to connect open-ocean swells.
Shop Review: Why We Recommend It
The Afterburner has quickly become a shop favorite for one simple reason: its upwind capability is completely unmatched. In local testing, our team clocked a 7-mile upwind leg from the Event Site to Viento in under 30 minutes.
If your goal is self-supported upwind/downwind runs without relying on shuttle cars, this is the tool for the job. Beyond sheer VMG (Velocity Made Good), the wing shines in high-speed cruising and fast, powered tack maneuvers where the smooth overhead drive keeps you flying cleanly through turns.
Ideal For: Advanced riders, racers, and downwinders demanding maximum upwind angle, blistering top-end speed, and hooked-in efficiency.
Looking for an Easier Progression Wing? If you are newer to parawinging or prioritize plug-and-play ease of use, check out the Ozone Pocket Rocket V2.
Key Performance Highlights
-
Class-Leading Upwind Drive: High aspect-ratio design cuts close to the wind at blistering speeds, turning long upwind transits into short warm-ups.
-
Expanded High-End Range: Matches the low-end lift of the Pocket Rocket V2 while delivering an explosive, stable top end that refuses to flutter.
-
Effortless Tacking: Delivers smooth, predictable overhead lift during foil tacks to maintain flight through directional transitions.
-
Harness-Optimized Depower: Designed specifically for hooked-in riding; includes a pre-installed 25cm fixed loop to minimize arm fatigue over multi-mile runs.
-
Quick, Tangle-Free Stashing: Balanced bridle layout allows you to pack down cleanly once you catch the bump and ride downwind unassisted.
Technical Specifications & Design Features
Advanced Single-Surface Canopy
-
High Aspect-Ratio Planform: Maximizes aerodynamic lift and forward drive while shedding parasitic drag.
-
High Cell Count with Full Rib Support: Spreads aerodynamic loads evenly to produce an exceptionally clean, taut canopy in high winds.
-
Clean Depower Profile: Minimal canopy flutter when sheeted out, ensuring smooth handling and zero balance disruption on foil.
-
Lightweight Construction: Optimized attachment tabs minimize overall bulk and pack volume.
Hybrid Bridle Layout
-
Upper Level: Ultra-thin Kevlar lines reduce aerodynamic drag at high speeds.
-
Mid-Level & Risers: Thicker, stiffer lines prevent abrasive wear and resist tangling during on-water stashing and rapid redeployment.
Monobloc Carbon Control Bar (Included)
-
Featherlight Build: Weighs just 90 grams for seamless, fatigue-free handling.
-
Ergonomic 35cm Span: Compact dimensions balance rapid stashing convenience with responsive leverage.
-
Tactile Handling: Features a textured EVA grip, index-finger overhang for micro-depower control, an A-line stopper nub, and dedicated thumb rests on the bar ends.
