Ozone POCKET ROCKET V2 ULTRA-X Parawing
Description
Ozone Pocket Rocket V2 Ultra-X Parawing
The Ozone Pocket Rocket V2 Ultra-X takes the proven, award-winning blueprint of the Pocket Rocket V2 and pushes performance to the absolute limit. Engineered with premium ultralight materials, precision-machined rib cutouts, and an ultra-compact packdown, the Ultra-X is designed for riders demanding effortless drift during downwind runs, instant depower, and early foil takeoffs in the lightest breezes.
Shop Review: Why We Recommend It
The standard Pocket Rocket V2 is already an industry benchmark, but the Ultra-X takes the riding experience to an entirely new level.
What immediately sets this wing apart is its weight savings and minimal pack volume. It packs down roughly 20% smaller than the standard version, making on-water stashing completely effortless when you transition from wing power to pure swell-carving.
Testing here in the gusty Columbia River Gorge, the weight reduction pays immediate dividends: these wings simply refuse to fall out of the sky. In the larger sizes, the weight savings transform light-wind riding; in the smaller sizes, the wing floats through lulls and technical maneuvers without losing line tension. Paired with the included 90-gram Monobloc Carbon Bar, which offers phenomenal feedback and ergonomics, the Ultra-X delivers a high-end, responsive feel from the moment you launch.
Key Performance Highlights
-
Effortless Drift & Hang Time: Floats reliably during high-speed carving and downwind transitions. Even when riding directly toward the wing, the lines remain tensioned to avoid sudden drops.
-
Up to 17% Lighter Build: Shaves critical grams across all sizes, significantly lowering the stalling threshold.
-
20% Smaller Packdown Volume: Compressible ultralight cloth rolls down tight, reducing harness or pack bulk while carving swell unassisted.
-
Ultra-Lightweight Carbon Control: Ships standard with the 90-gram Monobloc Carbon Bar for direct steering leverage and fatigue-free depower.
-
Expanded Light-Wind Threshold: The addition of the dedicated 6.5m size unlocks foiling in winds as light as 8 knots.
Advanced Materials & Engineering
10D Canopy & Weight-Targeted Rib Cutouts
To reduce weight without compromising aerodynamic structure, Ozone pairs an ultra-thin 10D (25g) canopy fabric with 27g hard-finish ribs. Non-structural material is precision-cut from the internal ribs, leaving only engineered load-bearing paths. This structure preserves rigid canopy tension under power while drastically cutting dead weight and bulk.
Light-Wind Architecture (5.7m & 6.5m)
Rather than offering tiny high-wind sizes where weight savings yield diminishing returns, the Ultra-X lineup focuses heavily on expanding the light-wind threshold:
-
Two Extra Cells: The 5.7m and 6.5m models incorporate two additional cells to refine leading-edge tension and smooth out aerodynamic airflow.
-
Sub-10-Knot Capability: The 6.5m profile enables consistent flight and active pumping in soft 8-knot conditions.
Splice-Coated, Tangle-Resistant Bridles
The color-coded bridle array uses stiff, specially coated lines that slide smoothly through the hands without skin rash. The low-friction finish resists twisting and knots, speeding up deployment and repacking on the water.
Monobloc Carbon Control Bar (Included)
Weighing just 90 grams, the 35cm full-carbon bar provides precision handling and micro-depower control:
-
Index-Finger Overhang: Increases comfort and fingertip depower precision.
-
A-Line Stopper Nub: Provides a secure grip and leverage point between the index and middle fingers.
-
Bar-End Thumb Rests: Ergonomic resting spots designed for relaxed long-distance cruising.
Ultra-X Technical Backpack
Designed specifically for multi-mile downwind runs and open-water missions:
-
Mission-Pack Shoulder Straps: Wide, load-spreading straps wrap snugly around the chest and torso to eliminate pack bounce while pumping foil.
-
Breathable Mesh Construction: Integrated ventilation panels dump moisture and heat quickly.
-
Fully Adjustable Harness System: Includes an adjustable chest strap with an integrated whistle buckle and internal accessory stash pockets.
