:: TEAM OZONE
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.
Paragliding design is led by the ever thoughtful Dav Dagault and Rob
Whittall who just don't ever stop; they are pilots with a wealth of
experience both in competition and adventure flying, as well as PG
design. Also on the design team are test pilots Antoine Boissellier,
who is equally at home on a pg or a hg, and Jerome Canaud, a true
acro spirit - they can usually be found putting Dav's latest creation
through a series of acro manoeuvres. Antoine is also kept busy
promoting our wings and looking after our team of pilots.
Back in the office Mike 'Da Boss' Cavanagh and Sam Lowe look after
the finances and generally keep control of the mayhem. Making sure
that your glider gets from our factory to you as quickly as possible is
Claire Drury, who also works on our kites and accessories range.
Meanwhile hidden in a corner, trying to avoid looking at the flyable
conditions outside are Marcus King and Manu Prissette who look after
all our adverts, videos and communication, as well as trying to keep
the computers running.
The kite team are made up of manager Matt Taggart and product
developer Tom Bourdeau, who along with Rob continue to push our
kite designs and build kite sales whilst getting out there doing it as
much as possible.
Our 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
Cyril Friaud, Ngan and 170 production staff all dedicated to Ozone
production.
:: YOUR MOJO
The MOJO is intended for beginner pilots and those who want stress
free flying. With its easy inflation and accessibility, the MOJO is very
forgiving to fly and has the easy characteristics typical of a DHV 1
glider. We've combined long brake travel for safety with progressive
handling for good turning behaviour; add this to the notably better
sink rate and you get great thermalling performance. In flight the
MOJO has a smooth feel and is very stable in both pitch and roll,
making it feel very comfortable and safe. We've maintained the
feedback that is vital if you want to know what the air is doing around
you; this is a glider that will safely take you from your first flights to
cross country adventures.
The Mojo is the result of several prototypes and months of intense
work testing and designing by our team : David Dagault, Rob
Whittall, Antoine Boisselier and Jérome Canaud.
We've decided to make the Mojo in 5 sizes to cover the widest weight
range ever, from 55 to 155kg. The Mojo has been load tested at 12G
to 155kg to prove its strength. Because we care about the longevity
of your wing, we're working constantly to improve the components
which can improve its lifespan and this has led to the Mojo being
bomproof.
We've used a new system of line attachments : The tab
reinforcements are bigger, the tab webbing is longer, going deeper
into the rib and the sewing technique has been developed to spread
the load over a wider area. The main advantage of this is to allow
better support of the airfoil and improve the longevity of your wing.
Adding this new system of attachment to the well known quality of
the Gelvenor, will mean you can make the most of your Mojo for a
very long time ...
Smaller pilots have been taken in consideration, as the XS is
delivered with shorter risers (- 5cm) to allow easier handling of the
risers (big ears, launching etc.)
We hope you enjoy flying the MOJO as much as we do.
