The Z3 was, in many ways, one of the best paragliders that we have ever produced, and is the wing that several of us at Ozone choose to fly in our free time. Our mission for the Z4 was to retain the incredible balance of comfort and agility that made the Z3 one of our all-time favorites and add some of the performance enhancing design features that have trickled down from the Ozone Performance Project. The Z4 has now benefitted from much of what we have learned from our highest performing wings, such as the Enzo and R12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of this means that the Z4 is, in our opinion, the new standard for versatility in the intermediate class. No other wing that we have flown offers such an attractive balance of XC performance and total comfort and ease of use. With its performance upgrade, the Z4 is a highly capable XC wing that will deliver long stress-free flights to veteran XC pilots or to newer low airtime pilots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBALANCE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Intermediate class provides the perfect intersection of performance and comfort, and the Z4 has hit the mark perfectly with performance that is normally associated with the classes above, but ease of use that makes this wing ideal for talented beginners. In real XC conditions, the Z4 is highly pitch stable, remaining efficient in turbulent climbs and glides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFEELING\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Z4 is comfortable above all else. The handling is highly intuitive, with an even more progressive feel than the Z3 and understandable but gentle feedback in active air. Centering on the lift has never been more simple, thanks to the highly progressive nature of the brake travel; as you begin to turn in lift, the wing tends to “bite” into it and the tightening of the turn comes naturally. The wing feels highly compact, with a perfect coordination of roll and yaw in the climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePERFORMANCE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have retained all of the Z3’s solidity in active air, while adding in several “free” performance increases thanks to improvements in drag reduction. We are very happy to report that although the performance is significantly improved, the aspect ratio has remained the same which means that none of the negative effects of an increased aspect ratio have detracted from its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are a recent graduate or a veteran XC pilot, you will instantly appreciate the Z4’s stability and glide across its entire speed range in active air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew techniques in sail construction and improved materials have yielded a 13% reduction in line drag, and a more efficient leading edge has increased smoothness, efficiency and pitch stability for a better feel and better glide performance in real XC conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Buzz Z4 is an ideal choice for pilots who fly approximately 30-50 hours per year, or for more experienced pilots who are searching for a wing with high levels of passive safety and comfort in the Intermediate Class. The lengthy development process of the Z4 has been more than worth it, and we are confident that the best-selling Buzz series will attract even more followers with this newest edition. We look forward to hearing about your flights, so please let us know what you think.

features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe simply aimed for more performance in a similar design frame, using some of the most recent exciting developments in paraglider design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Z4 features the same amount of cells, same aspect ratio, and same planform of the Z3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNEW FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the line drag has been reduced, the Z4 remains a 4-line design at the chord, for the perfect balance (for this AR and this class of wing) of stability, predictability, and ease of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew intake shaping, in order to improve the internal pressure across a wider range of angles of attack and to reduce unwanted vibrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shaping has been slightly revised with the combination of 3D shaping and fine tuning, for a cleaner sail and a smoother, more cohesive feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are still using the mini-ribs which reduce the trailing edge drag, helping performance without interfering in safety or comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall line length has been reduced, improving inflation characteristics, roll reduction, and decreasing total line drag by 13%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of all of these optimisations has led to an improvement of the glide ratio by 0.6 to 0.8 pt over the previous version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore diagonals have been added on the back of the wing and near the tip for a more compact feel and a cleaner sail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe arc of the wing is close to what it was, with a variation near the tip. Combined with a new brake diagram, this has given the Z4 a more progressive feel in the turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe accelerator system now features top of the line super-smooth Ronstan ball bearing pulleys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDownload \u003ca title=\"Download Ozone Buzz Z4 Manual\" href=\"http:\/\/downloads.flyozone.com\/pdf\/PG\/buzz_z4\/buzz_z4.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eOzone Buzz Z4 Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePACKAGE CONTENTS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour Ozone wing is delivered standard with the following accessories: 135 L Backpack, Inner Bag, Glider Strap, Speed Bar, Ozone Stickers, Repair Cloth, Ozone Keyring, Line Length Chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may choose to add something to your order, such as: Saucisse Bag (concertina packing bag), Easy Bag (quick stuff sack), or Ozone Clothing and Accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ozone","offers":[{"title":"XS \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674337150,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XS-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664674369918,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XS-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664674402686,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XS-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664674435454,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XS-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674468222,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-S-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664674500990,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-S-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664674533758,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-S-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664674566526,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-S-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"MS \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664674599294,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-MS-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"MS \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664674632062,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-MS-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"MS \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674664830,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-MS-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"MS \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664674697598,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-MS-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"ML \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664674730366,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-ML-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"ML \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664674763134,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-ML-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"ML \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664674795902,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-ML-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"ML \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674828670,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-ML-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"L \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674861438,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-L-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"L \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664674894206,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-L-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"L \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664674926974,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-L-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"L \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664674959742,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-L-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL \/ RWRM","offer_id":56664674992510,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XL-RWRM","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL \/ MWMY","offer_id":56664675025278,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XL-MWMY","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL \/ HWHA","offer_id":56664675058046,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XL-HWHA","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL \/ Green-White-Green-Light Green","offer_id":56664675090814,"sku":"OZONE-BUZZZ4-XL-NWNH","price":2166.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/ozone_buzz_z4_-_001.jpg?v=1764775020","url":"https:\/\/flybubble.com\/products\/ozone-buzz-z4","provider":"Flybubble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
