12.04.2024
Ozone took a while to release their version of the Aluula material but what I can tell you is that it was worth the wait.

This stiffer frame holds the overall profile better and with a 16 point leading edge bridle attachment in combination with the double transversal shaping the canopy is ultra tight.
