Ozone production times

Ozone wings are made to order. Ozone gives their current approximate production time on their website in working days, for example: "The current production time is approximately 30 days from order to shipping". Add 1-3 weeks for shipping, and allow for unexpected delays. Some may claim shorter delivery times however we're unsure how they can supply faster than the manufacturer themselves can produce and ship! ;-)

VIBE GT:  Sport / Intermediate Pilot - EN B

New features

For the first time on a 3-line EN B, the Vibe GT features a fully developed rear-riser steering system delivering 2-liner-style Angle of Attack (AoA) control.

This system allows accurate pitch control on bar without profile distortion, improving efficiency across the speed range and giving pilots refined pitch authority when accelerated. It offers a direct pathway toward 2-line techniques while retaining the comfort and security of a 3-line platform.

The Pilot

The Vibe GT is the natural progression for pilots stepping up from EN A or low EN B wings. It is designed for those seeking higher efficiency, sharper handling, and modern control systems without stepping into the demands of higher categories. In other words, for pilots who want to fly high and relaxed!

The Tech

With an aspect ratio of 5.45 and 55 cells, the Vibe GT is centered in the Ozone EN B range of wings, ideal for pilots ready to step beyond entry-level performance.

Every element of the Vibe GT has been optimised for efficiency and cohesion. A low drag line plan, double 3D shaping, an advanced internal structure, and an exceptionally clean leading edge all combine for high aerodynamic efficiency.

Mini-ribs refine the trailing edge for reduced drag and sharper brake response. A higher arc, combined with winglets, increases sail tension and turn authority while improving side-collapse behaviour and ensuring predictable spiral characteristics — a critical quality in the mid-B class. The result is a wing that feels compact, direct, and coordinated in active air.

In Flight

Efficient, playful, and composed, the Vibe GT handling is beautifully coordinated. Turn initiation is clean and progressive, with excellent roll authority and balanced yaw response.

It cores efficiently, holds bank angles naturally, and transitions smoothly between thermals and glides. Reduced sail inertia — thanks to the GT semi-light construction — increases responsiveness and amplifies the sense of connection to the air.

Glide efficiency is strong throughout the speed range, and the rear-steering system enhances control and efficiency when accelerated. Drag reduction through refined line architecture, winglet integration, and clean trailing edge construction translates directly into measurable gains in glide and usable speed.

Despite its performance focus, the Vibe GT maintains reassuring pitch stability and predictable collapse behaviour. The moderate aspect ratio and cohesive internal structure preserve accessibility while allowing pilots to push further with confidence. Spiral behaviour remains balanced and controlled — exactly as it should in a mid-level EN B.

The GT Range

Part of the GT range, the Vibe GT combines reduced sail weight with everyday durability. Lower mass improves inflation, handling precision, and collapse behaviour while maintaining long-term robustness.

Designer notes

The Vibe GT fills a gap we wanted to address for a long time — a mid EN-B wing that sits comfortably between the Buzz and the Rush, with the GT pedigree at its core.

The aspect ratio is set at 5.45, and 55 cells were chosen deliberately. This combination gives the Vibe GT the right character for a mid-B: enough precision and performance to reward a pilot who wants to progress, without asking too much in return. Too few cells and the sail loses its composure; too many and you add weight and complexity that works against the spirit of the wing.

GT construction was the natural choice. Lighter materials reduce inertia and raise the overall level of pleasure in the air. And as with all GT wings, the focus on durability means it easily holds up to everyday flying.

Line consumption has been reduced to the absolute minimum. Combined with double 3D shaping and a carefully balanced internal structure, the result is a sail that stays wrinkle-free across the entire speed range — the foundation of real glide efficiency. Mini-ribs at the trailing edge keep the exit flow clean and complete the picture.

The winglets were a key decision. Combined with a higher arc, they improve sail tension, sharpen turn authority and give better behaviour in asymmetric collapse recovery. But for a wing in this category, the most important benefit is predictable spiral behaviour. For a mid-B pilot, that predictability is not a bonus — it is essential.

The risers introduce something genuinely new: a rear steering system that brings 2-liner precision to a 3-liner design. Never before has a 3 liner wing benefitted from the precise rear steering of the VibeGT ACR system. It opens a new dimension of control for pilots ready to explore it, without changing anything about the fundamental accessibility of the wing.

Pilot review

This project has been especially meaningful to me because the original Vibe was one of the first wings I used to develop my early test‑piloting skills. Coming back to it twenty years later and developing its modern successor made the progress we have made unmistakably clear.

The technical gains are significant — better sink rate, more precise handling, higher speed, and improved glide — but the biggest leap is in overall ease of use, comfort and fun! The Vibe GT is on a completely different level, it is a confidence‑inspiring wing with refined handling that slots perfectly between the Rush and the Buzz and is the ideal wing to progress your flying with, whether that be XC, SIV, acro or for just enjoying the simple pleasures of flight.
