CUTTING EDGE PERFORMANCE:

RAM AIR TECHNOLOGY, 100% DOUBLE SURFACE, INTERNAL RIBS

Our efforts for this project centred around optimal aerofoil design, leading us to the efficient, but difficult to achieve, double surface design. We were left exploring ways to overcome both the structural challenges and the manufacturing intricacies.

Initially, the primary task of being able to find an immediate sense of improved performance and usability remained difficult to deliver…

We remained committed and continued our work. Through innovative construction techniques and the “ram air” principles integral to wingsuits, we’ve achieved a design that presents the wing and kite sector with a revolutionary perspective.

BETWEEN THE SHEETS

The Fusion wing is designed around the high-performance planform of the Flux, including the pre-loaded leading edge, which is made with stiff performance dacron and experiences drastically less deformation in strong conditions.

The 100% double surface ram air design creates an enclosed high pressure space between the entire upper and lower surfaces. The internal rib structure supports both sail layers and helps the wing smoothly deal with dynamic pressure differentials when the wing’s angle-of-attack changes.

WHAT IS THE BIG ADVANTAGE OF THE DOUBLE SURFACE DESIGN?

A dramatic reduction in drag.

When the air travels over a wing it splits at the stagnation point on the leading edge. While the air that runs along the top surface has a clean and continuous surface to follow, the airflow on the bottom of a single surface wing creates vortices behind the leading edge. This turbulent underside flow creates drag which reduces performance.

A HOT KNIFE THROUGH BUTTER

The Fusion’s design has unlocked enormous performance potential. Producing more lift, while reducing drag, means performance gains have moved in bigger steps and these improvements are revealed in far more areas than just locked-in, straight line speed.

By completely fairing the lower surface, designing a clean envelope structure and adding ram air intakes, the air pressure created internally helps the upper and lower surface retain positive pressure and tension over its entire area.

A well designed ram air envelope will naturally guard against luffing (the moment a canopy starts to flap) and helps support better load distribution throughout the entire sail. Utilising the dynamic pressure created by the aerofoil section, combined with ram air inflation, we have opened up a new world of untapped design potential.

Ozone’s experience developing efficient ram air structures meant that the design team had the background knowledge to push the Fusion, both in terms of performance potential and physical design.

The end result is unique; a beautifully crafted 100% double-surface wing with stunning performance, sublime design and manufacturing solutions throughout.

It feels like a hot knife through butter.

THE FUSION IS FAST… THE FASTER YOU GO, THE MORE POWERFUL IT GETS. IT’S LIKE ACCESSING SUPERCHARGED PERFORMANCE.

THE NEW REALM OF WINGFOILING:

CONTROL EVERY PART OF THE GAME

Light up every session with untold potential… This is the new realm of wingfoiling and it will keep you wanting more.

You can enjoy the Fusion on an intermediate, mid-size front foil wing, however the Fusion opens up freedom to play with smaller, faster foils and these are key to unlocking the wing’s real potential. As you tweak your foil set up to have less drag underwater, the more it will allow the Fusion’s supercharged handling and extreme airspeed capabilities to really shine.

With a greater feel for the energy at play, progressive riders will find the Fusion helps them to develop the instincts to squeeze ever increasing performance from their equipment and themselves.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

 

WHO IS IT FOR?

The Fusion Wing is for those who are ready to experience a new realm of winging where previously unreachable performance is now achievable. It is suitable for experienced intermediate riders and beyond who are proficient at tacking and gybing, sending and landing airs confidently and who have reached a level where they don’t regularly have major, out of control wipeouts.

The efficiency of the Fusion’s double surface wing design is notable at all times. It’s exceptionally fast, can be raced to the podium places easily and of course its speed transfers to incredible jumping height.

WHAT IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT BENEFIT?

All performance areas are improved by the fact that the ride is incredibly smooth and predictable. The double-surface absorbs gusty winds with unrecognisable ease and the wing generates so much more power with less need to sheet in hard. You can hold more wind and power than a single surface design while riding closer to the wind, which means you can go faster with incredible control.

Fusion’s speed and stability also means it’s a powerful weapon for sending it big. Due to the way the Fusion powers up, an adapted jumping and landing technique is needed to discover its true flight potential.

HOW WILL MY RIDING TECHNIQUE NEED TO CHANGE?

The Fusion handling does initially feel different, but only subtle changes to your technique are needed to get in tune and start feeling performance gains.

The simplest rule to keep in mind is: just let the wing fly!

• When pumping the wing to generate speed you don’t need to crank the rear handle excessively. Keep the pump swings short. The more you crank the rear handle, the less you’re allowing it to fly! Until you’re used to the technique, make sure you have plenty of wind for your first sessions. This will help you come up on the foil and allow you to feel the wing flying properly.

• Once you’re up and riding, focus more on the front handle which will promote greater acceleration. You will immediately notice how the Fusion likes to shoot straight upwind without the twitchiness of single surface wings. Achieving a good trim is everything for this wing; the Fusion will do the rest.

• If you’re used to riding a single surface wing, the biggest change is (as repeated in the first point): you need to become less reliant on cranking the rear handle for power. You’ll soon appreciate the Fusion’s positive, dart-like drive through tacks. Carrying more inertia due to the volume of air inside the wing makes it handle differently to a single surface wing, but once you’re dialled in, the added benefits of increased range and power are also undeniable.

When entering a tack or gybe, try to avoid doing one final big pump for some extra power, as this will kill the Fusion’s flow (which is where its power comes from). Once you’re used to the Fusion’s riding style, you will generally be riding with more speed anyway, so learn to go with the wing; let it fly and feel that flutter-free experience. Look after its trajectory and you’ll find it’s possible to make incredibly fast and fluid tacks. Carrying a higher angle into wind and with more speed means that you have less angle to complete for your tack, so for upwind gains, the Fusion is remarkable.

IS IT HEAVY?

No. In fact the Fusion 5m weighs just 100 grams more than our Flux 5m wing!

The Fusion has a unique internal structure and uses more material than our single surface wings, but all our wings are always born as light as possible. The Fusion’s leading edge and strut are built with the same stiff and lighter weight (125g) performance dacron as used on our Flux wing.

The lower surface and internal ribs are also made with a lighter weight canopy cloth for maximum aerodynamic performance and the air intakes have been developed to offer the ideal relationship between rigidity and streamlined weight. The EVA covered carbon handles are also designed to maximise control and feel while keeping weight to a minimum.

We build integrated strength into our products through high quality material placements and the careful sewing techniques developed in our in-house production facility, so have no need to add extra reinforcements or unnecessary cosmetics, which only increase weight.

DOES IT TAKE ON WATER?

The air intakes have been optimally designed to allow air in while preventing water entry. In the event that water enters the wing, there are four drainage holes located at the trailing edge; two near the strut and two at the wingtips.

We don’t recommend regularly submitting the wing to heavy, submerged wipeouts. We don’t advise it to be used as a wave wing in case a wipeout water logs it.

CAN IT BE REPAIRED?

Yes it can. Although there are two layers of canopy to deal with, the leading edge closing seam is positioned on the outside, so if you somehow manage to pierce the leading edge this can easily be accessed.

Zips next to the inflation valves on the leading edge and strut also allow for easy bladder replacement.

Repairing damaged sail cloth can be more complex than for a single surface wing as multiple seams may need to be opened if you damage more than one canopy surface. If you somehow manage to damage part of the internal rib structure it would require more intricate work by a sail repairer, but the ribs are not attached to the leading edge, so the stitching can be unpicked and replaced without needing to unpick the leading edge.


IS IT FOR ME?

If you are an experienced and solid rider who knows how to handle a wing carefully and is looking for max speed, radical riding angles, overhead drive and the sensation of riding a precision aerofoil you have to check it out!

Until you’re able to recognise how to adjust your technique to the different sensations that come from the expansive range, power and efficiency, you won’t benefit from the Fusion’s potential.

To access all the performance potential the Fusion has to offer, we recommend using higher performance foils such as the MA800 or other race foils. Simply put, the faster you go the more performance advantages come alive.

The Fusion has no windows so it takes an experienced, vigilant rider who is fully aware of their surroundings and other riders.

Double Surface Design

Double Surface Design

The 100% double surface ram air design creates an enclosed high pressure space between the entire upper and lower surfaces. By completely fairing the lower surface, designing a clean envelope structure and adding ram air inlets, the air pressure created internally helps the upper and lower surface retain positive pressure and tension over its entire area. 
Ram Air Tech

Ram Air Tech

Foil kites and paragliders have been taking advantage of this effect for decades, with the help of ribs it allows to get a proper airfoil shape by creating internal pressure between the upper and lower surface. A well designed ram air envelope will naturally guard against luffing (the moment a canopy starts to flap) and helps support better load distribution throughout the entire sail.
Supporting Internal Rib Structure

Supporting Internal Rib Structure

The internal rib structure supports both sail layers and helps the wing smoothly deal with dynamic pressure differentials when the wing’s angle-of-attack changes. Should any water enter inside the wing, mesh panels positioned at the rear of each rib panel allow water to flow through each rib and be expelled via the water drainage holes.
Air Intake Valves

Air Intake Valves

Inspired from wingsuits, they allow air to enter into the internals. They have been specifically designed to keep water out by using a valve system. 
Water Drainage Holes

Water Drainage Holes

In the rare event water does come inside the wing, there are four drainage holes on the trailing edge, two near the strut and two more on the tips. 
Streamlined Tip Junction 

Streamlined Tip Junction 

To maintain smooth aerodynamics where multiple sections are joined at the Fusion tips, the last upper and lower surface panels are split  to connect to the highest and lowest point of the leading edge tube. A closing panel is added to the split trailing edge in order to maintain even pressure inside the internals. 
Lower Surface Zipper

Lower Surface Zipper

To minimise weight, the Fusion has only one zip on the lower surface that allows access to the inflate/deflate valves on the leading edge and strut. It also allows access in order to replace a bladder with no added difficulty compared to a single surface wing. 
Rigid Power Handles

Rigid Power Handles

Ergonomically angled front and back carbon fibre handles with EVA grip provide maximum control and comfort with incredible feel and response. The front handle mount features a soft bumper to protect your head and board during water starts.

A CULMINATION OF ALL WE’VE LEARNT FROM 25 YEARS OF AERODYNAMIC DEVELOPMENT IN OUR OWN FACTORY

The Fusion is the result of all that we’ve learnt through more than two decades of Ozone running its own factory that builds paragliders, wingsuits, kites, wings and accessories. A thousand highly trained employees apply their skills across nine factory floors, including the dedicated prototyping department that operates full time. The turnaround on ideas into physical products is super fast and allows for the development of strong, lightweight and perfectly trimmed products to come to life.

Intense high performance levels are borne from the fact that our designers capitalise on having 100% access to the factory to try new ideas and then produce as many prototypes as it takes to make products feel just right.

Ozone not only owns all its own production processes in the factory but also in design. Our highly advanced, custom built OzCAD software, built from the ground up, means that our designers intimately understand every square inch of pressure exerted in each size of every product. Part of our design team is dedicated to the upgrade of the CAD code as well as the addition of new modules and features to the program as the development of our products continues.

BORN LIGHT; GENETICALLY STRONG

At Ozone we have always believed in designing lightness and strength into our paragliders, kites and now wings, to be as efficient in flight as possible.

Naturally, the lighter the kite or wing is, the better it will fly. The stronger it is, the longer its performance will last.

We avoid adding surplus features or unnecessary cosmetic items to our designs and use top of the line materials put through a rigorous testing programme.

If you compare the weights of any Ozone kite or wing against the most dedicated light weight specific products produced by our competitors, you’ll see that all our products are just born light. Even on our entry level designs we don’t compromise the handling benefits that airborne products undoubtedly have through being lighter.

Combined with cutting edge manufacturing and highly skilled craftspeople our designs are Born Light; Genetically Strong.

Technical, performant, durable and efficient – the lightness and strength is built in.

Set Up:

  • Attach the pump leash to the wing, around the leash line connection loop.
  • Remove the foam protectors from the air intakes. Store them in the bag.
  • Open the zip located on the lower surface to access the Strut and Leading Edge inflate/deflate valves. Do not stretch the zip open excessively.
  • Inflate the Strut first.
  • Check the valve is clean and free from sand/grit around the rubber seal.
  • Screw the valve in firmly to the base.
  • Open the top valve cap.
  • Inflate using the IN valve.
  • Refer to the recommended inflation pressures located on the lower surface.
  • Do not over inflate above the recommendation.
  • Do not under inflate or it will not perform as designed.
  • Close the top valve cap. Double check the valve is tightened firm and is sealing.
  • Close the protection cover.
  • Repeat inflation steps for the Leading Edge.
  • Close the zip on the lower surface.
  • Never leave unattended without securing the wing. If needed attach the leash to a sand bag, board, or a weight/solid object to secure the wing.

Security

Always use the Leash. Attach it before you start.

 

  • Wrap the Waist Strap around your waist and close the buckle.

  • Adjust to fit snug around your waist.

  • If you become overpowered or loose control let go of the wing, it will de-power on the leash line.

  • If you need to completely free yourself from the wing undo the Waist Strap. Be aware the wing will likely become out of reach.

First Use

  • This is not an entry-level product. You must know how to handle and ride a conventional “single surface” wing first.
  • The wing has a de-power handle on the Leading Edge and power handles on the Strut.
  • When carrying the wing use the de-power handle. Carry the wing upside down (handles facing upwards) to minimise swinging motion.
  • Sheet the wing in to power up, and out to de-power.
  • Avoid excessive sheeting in on the rear handle, keep in mind that the balance between front and rear handle is different from a “single surface” wing.
  • Although the air intakes have been specifically designed so water has a hard time getting into the internal cells, we recommend keeping the wing upside down (handles facing upwards) when in the water before starting.

Water Self Rescue

  • Turn the wing to face the power handles upwards.

  • Open the zip located on the lower surface to access the Strut and Leading Edge inflate/deflate valves. Do not stretch the zip open excessively.

  • Open the Leading Edge OUT valve to deflate.

  • Fold the wing tip on tip then roll to the centre.

  • Make sure no water enters through the zip, air intakes or valve.

  • When all the air is out, screw the valve back in to seal the bladder.

  • Open the Strut OUT valve to deflate.

  • Again, make sure no water enters through the zip, air intakes or valve.

  • Fold the wing in two or three sections.

  • Screw the valve back in to seal the bladder.

  • Close the zip located on the lower surface to avoid water entering the internal cells.

  • Wrap the leash line around the wing to keep it secured.

  • Wrap the waist strap around the wing, close the buckle and tighten to secure.

  • Paddle/swim back to shore with your board and wing.

  • In case you become separated from your board we recommend leaving the strut inflated for buoyancy.

Water Self Rescue Turn the wing to face the power handles upwards. Open the zip located on the l

Packing

  • Before packing, let the wing dry out. To facilitate this process, keep the wing inflated and open the zip located on the lower surface.
  • Never leave unattended without securing the wing. If needed attach the leash to a sand bag, board, or a weight/solid object to secure the wing.
  • Leave the zip open throughout the deflation and packing process.
  • Open the OUT valves. The large valves dump air quickly.
  • Fit the foam protectors into the air intakes.
  • Roll one side of the wing to the centre.
  • Squeeze all air out from the strut.
  • Roll the opposite side of the wing to the centre.
  • Make sure to get all the air out of the leading edge, strut and internal cells.
  • Screw the valves back in a few turns and close the protection covers.
  • Close the zip on the lower surface.
  • Fold in sections from the trailing edge to fit into the bag.

NOTE:
If packing on the water, after rolling the wing up, screw the valves back in to seal the bladders and close the zip on the lower surface to avoid water entering.

Packing Before packing, let the wing dry out. To facilitate this process, keep the wing inflated an

Product Care

This is a technical product used in harsh outdoor environments.
Use common sense and care for your equipment.

• Never inflate this product on a rough surface.

• Inflate slowly and ensure the bladders are inflating correctly. If you see a twist or something looks strange stop pumping immediately and check bladders. They may need re-inserting to ensure they inflate properly.

Anything is Possible…

Get your own branded kite – the ultimate advertising billboard

Millions of people go to the beach every year and kitesurfing is the most visually spectacular beach sport around, drawing the eyes of attention from everyone. Kites are huge and kites with a customized design can be amazing advertising spaces.

Flying up and down the beach, park or snow all day long, these spaces can be used to advertise local and international businesses, kite-schools or simply for your own kite with a design that suits you perfectly and makes you stand out a little more from the crowd. If you have your own company you can add your company logo to your kites which allows them to be written off as a business operating expense. How cool is that!

For mainstream companies the opportunity to invest in a flying Billboard is obvious at a fraction of the cost to normal advertising. So far we have worked with many of the World’s leading brands making them kites or making kites for riders sponsored by mainstream brands that see the benefit in Kite sports.

What does it Cost?

Quotes vary depending on the complexity and size of the logo or design. We can only give a quote once we have the info (see above)

LOGO STUCK:

For logos to be stuck onto only 1-2 kites, we print the logo onto the white rip-stop sticky-back material. Then the logo is cut out and then stuck on the kite. The stickers typically stick very well however we cannot guarantee them for the life of the kite.

CUT INTO SAIL:

If the logo is not too complicated we can cut into the sail as its single surface (or both surfaces of foil kites). The logos look amazing and the light shines through beautifully. Price depends on the size and how complicated the logo is. Please note that we can only use our standard colour fabrics. Ask your local distributor for feasibility.
