Ozone Sublite Competition Harness

Ozone Sublite Competition Harness Ozone Sublite Competition Harness Ultra-light submarine-style harness built for hike & fly competitions, delivering minimal drag, compact packing, and easy setup for the most demanding races. Built on Submarine innovation Fast, easy setup and clip-in 3D anatomical Dyneema thread network seat Removable cockpit and chest pocket Ultra-light and robust where it counts Accessible pockets with large storage Intro The Sublite is an ultra-light, hike-and-fly, submarine-type competition harness that has proven its exceptional efficiency and ease of use during the X-Alps and other hike & fly races. Weighing just 1.5 kg in size M, the commercial version features targeted reinforcements in key areas for enhanced durability, while remaining one of the lightest sub-type race harnesses on the market. It benefits from Ozone’s extensive R&D experience, with input from top hike & fly pilots such as Damien Lacaze, and feedback from eight other X-Alps pilots following the longest and most demanding edition of the race to date. The Pilot The Sublite is primarily designed for hike & fly competitors and ambitious XC pilots who want the lightest equipment with top performance. The manoeuvrability of the harness provides the necessary safety to handle challenging conditions and delicate landings. As a submarine-style harness, the Sublite offers a distinctive flight experience best suited to pilots familiar with this type of design. Its compact profile slightly reduces the field of view and changes the back-flight behaviour compared to a standard pod harness, while offering a more aerodynamic and efficient form in return. Experienced pilots will immediately appreciate its precision, handling, and comfort; perfectly aligned with our True Performance philosophy. The Tech The Sublite combines key innovations from the F*Race 2 and Submarine harnesses in an ultra-light yet robust design. Its 3D Dyneema-reinforced chassis saves weight while strengthening critical areas for lasting comfort and durability. PETG and carbon stiffeners along the back and sides further enhance comfort and control. Easy setup is ensured by the ergonomic shoulder strap-and-sleeve system. A removable cockpit and chest pocket provide extra space and quick installation. The reserve container is ideally positioned for quick, easy access, with the reserve bridles connected to the shoulders. All pockets are accessible in flight, with a large rear compartment for extra storage. The envelope uses lightweight, durable materials with reinforced zones and a new airtight magnetic closure. Compact packing is achieved through the ultra-light foam protector and Nitinol frame nose, which also ensures rapid pod inflation. Certification The Sublite is certified EN 1651-2018 for pilots up to 115kg. The EPP protector is certified at 42 g maximum peak of impact. In Flight Takeoff with the Sublite is effortless: the clever shoulder strap and sleeve system makes getting in a simple one-step motion. One toggle clip, one zip, and you’re ready to fly. The magnetic closure automatically seals the pod neatly and securely. In the air, the glide sensation is outstanding. The semi-reclined position and 3D-shaped seat provide exceptional comfort and agility while thermalling, and an ideal posture for smooth, efficient glides. Performance tests show an improvement in sink rate which is very close to that provided by the original Submarine. This translates into a real performance gain without the need for a more demanding glider.
