From what I’ve seen Ozone hasn’t really given any explanation as to why it costs so much more? It’s about $1000 more than a PRv2 and even significantly more than a full double skin from PPC. Not just trying to be a hater but why there is such a massive price increase.?

Ozone believe there are enough people who are willing to spend that much money on more performance. We may have to wait and see what happens. It’s not good news for us consumers if these incredibly expensive prices become the baseline for high performance parawings.

- The lines are psycho sharp.

I ordered an Orbit 3.5m from the UK distributor and it was delivered this week. Not had the chance to use it on the water yet.

The A lines, at least the inner ones used for stashing (upper blue lines in the photo below), are relatively thick and soft to use. They are much nicer than my F-One Frigates to handle and closer in feel to the Ozone Power Pack that I've briefly tried on the beach. From my on-land handling you do not need gloves to stash the Orbit. It's possible that PPC revised the lines based on early feedback. Which is very unfortunate for you Bryan, if your lines are different to these.


The harness line is from an F-One Frigate and was not supplied with the Orbit.
