The submarine is a low-drag, high-performance harness for serious XC and Competition flying. It is the result of a 5-year development process which included extensive testing, wind-tunnel research, and a prolonged beta phase with cooperation from some of the world’s top competition pilots.

Submarine: Serious XC & Competition
World’s first full cockpit fairing harness
Ram-air design, no fans or batteries
Envelope redesigned and updated in 2024
Immediately deflates when knees are bent, for safety
Ozone think the final design in its various sizes has proven that replacing your current harness with the Submarine will likely result in a larger performance advantage than updating your wing with a newer model. They think it is a big step forward in harness design and they look forward to all pilots being able to benefit from this 5 years of development work.
The Submarine is now in general production. Ozone has already had a lot of enquiries and has increased their production capacity in anticipation of demand, but as this is a highly technical harness to produce they ask pilots for their patience as the team in production work to fulfil the orders as fast as possible.
Proven Performance
The Submarine’s performance and comfort has now been thoroughly proven in the highly competitive PWC circuit. Ozone thank the pilots who assisted us during the multi-year development process. The Submarine has won virtually every major event since its release.
New envelope
The 2024 version of the Submarine represents the ultimate in harness drag reduction. Ozone listened to your feedback and made the collar adjustable, improved the instrument panel, increased fabric opacity for a cooler ride, and improved inflation and durability. Overall, it’s significantly more comfortable and more efficient!
Optional Spare Parts / Components:
Submarine structure comprising seats, inside storage and rescue pockets
Submarine envelope (the airtight skin of the submarine)
Wood seat plate
Pair of back bars
Main Cockpit, 4.5 liters
Instrument plate
Rescue handles
Foot Plate
3 one-foot Speed bar
Foot cubes, 3 different sizes, to adapt the various foot-plate to envelope nose distance
Back Foam
Submarine protector
Exoceat Cockpit. Adaptable to the Submarine and offering slightly more volume storage. It could restrict the leg movement while catching the speed bar, depending on the various settings
Additional front cockpit. It can be attached to the main cockpit Offering 2 liters more of storage with easy access from the top envelope zip. Can also contain an anti-G chute
The changes in the new envelope are detailed below. This new cover adds only 230 grammes to the total weight of the harness but offers many advantages.
Features
Low profile fully inflated envelope with foam-filled dynamic pressure air intake.
Low parasitic drag once inflated and set in position.
High parasitic drag once fully open and piloted in an upright position, offering Anti-G characteristics for descent.
Immediately deflates after bending your legs in case of strong turbulence or wing collapse.
Good yaw stability at all speeds.
Good instrument visibility in most light.
Balanced agility and roll stability.
Fully self-supported seat and foot plate, refined from the Exoceat.
Adjustable pitch angle with easily adjustable webbing and multiple fore & aft ballast pockets.
Two side rescue containers with easy extraction.
Features the innovative Neo Koroyd back protector.
Large "flight deck" is fully adjustable in pitch angle.
Main cockpit is 4.5 Liters volume with two front outside pockets.
Optional extra cockpit, 2.0 Liter.
Under seat storage, 1.0 Liter.
Two Side pockets, 1.5 liter each.
Two upper pockets, 0.6 liter each.
Back storage, 13 liters, including 2 liter drinking pocket.
Competition speed bars with 3 one-foot steps, fully settable to any wing configuration.
Huge potential range of speed bar to be compatible with wings using the longest speed systems.
Reviews
“I was amazed by the ingeniosity of that design. All the small details were studied to have that streamlined shape and efficiency. It is a bit delicate to handle, and landing on a tree isn’t a good idea and will eventually destroy the outside envelope. I don’t see how the rescue lines will pass near the collar without damaging the cloth…in case of a rescue opening. But it could happen without damage.
The difference in efficiency to gain gliding performance between a normal seated harness and a pod harness with rear fairing is greater than comparing the same pod harness with fairing to a Submarine.
But there’s a difference in speed and on long glides.
Every pilot will find a whole complete set of harnesses from pod to simple ones to his liking. The Submarine is a complex harness for a purpose.
If you are a very good competition pilot, and you need those extra meters that will help you get closer or be on a podium, then the Submarine is definitely for you if your competitors have a similar harness, then getting a high-end stream-lined harness like the Submarine, will keep you close in the game!”
