Ozone R3 9m

The Ozone Rapido 3 is a high-performance speed wing designed for experienced pilots who specialize in speed flying and speed riding.

The 9m² size is a versatile mid-range option within the series (which spans 6m to 15m), balanced for advanced pilots looking for a mix of high-speed carving, dynamic handling, and aggressive swoop potential.

Key Features and Characteristics Target Pilot: Designed for those with at least one full season of experience on highly loaded intermediate wings, like the Ozone Fazer series.

Flying Performance: Known for having the widest glide range in its class. It is highly stable at low angles of attack and offers an expanded trim range for steep lines.

Manoeuvrability: The wing leads the industry in roll sensitivity and is capable of low barrel rolls without losing significant altitude.

Evolutionary Upgrades: Compared to its predecessor (the “Rapi-Dos”), the Rapido 3 features lighter-weight yet higher denier fabric and a new cross-port design to reduce sail inertia.

Variations: Rapido 3 vs. Rapido 3X
While the standard Rapido 3 is a robust all-rounder, there is also an ultralight version called the Rapido 3X (R3X), which is also available in the 9m size.

Rapido 3X (Ultralight):

Constructed with Porcher Skytex 27g fabric and lightweight risers.

Features a shorter line set for increased réactivité and a wider piloting stance.

Ideal for hike and fly due to its low pack volume and easy nil-wind launch.

Standard Rapido 3:
Built for durability and longevity during normal use.

Offers options for sheathed or unsheathed lines depending on the pilot’s priority for drag reduction vs. ease of use.
