Ozone Delta 5: The 2-Liner Revolution
The Ozone Delta 5 marks the beginning of a new era. As the first 2-liner in the Delta legacy, it brings competition-level efficiency and rear-riser handling to the intermediate-advanced class. Developed alongside the Photon, the Delta 5 is designed for pilots who want the performance gains of a 2-line wing without the high aspect ratio or demanding workload of a competition glider. It is a true XC machine that remains solid and predictable in active air.
Unmatched Rear-Riser Control
By moving to a 2-line structure, the Delta 5 allows for intuitive, direct control over the angle of attack. Pilots can use the rear risers to manage the wing while on speed bar, just like a competition wing, significantly improving glide efficiency through turbulent air. The 2-line design also contributes to a cleaner profile and a massive reduction in total line drag compared to traditional 3-line wings.
Stability and Confidence
With a flat aspect ratio of 6.07, the Delta 5 is Ozone's most compact 2-liner. This compactness translates to exceptional stability and a cohesive, "one-piece" feel in flight. The internal structure is highly optimized to maintain tension across the span, providing a high level of collapse resistance and making the wing feel incredibly solid even when pushed at full speed.
Key Features
- Advanced 2-Line Architecture: Significant drag reduction and enhanced pitch control via rear risers.
- Legendary Delta Handling: Retains the precise, intuitive turning characteristics that the series is famous for.
- XC Efficiency: Optimized for glide performance and speed-bar stability during long-distance flights.
- Accessible Performance: The lowest aspect ratio 2-liner in the Ozone range, offering a manageable workload.
- Certified EN-C: Fully certified for intermediate-advanced pilots looking to move into the 2-line class.
