The much-anticipated glider tests from the Paragliding World Cup
Superfinal 2013 were completed in Switzerland this weekend. The results, leaked early to Cross Country and not yet confirmed officially by
either the PWCA or testing house Air Turquoise, show that the Ozone Enzo 2
paragliders used in the Superfinal in Brazil were significantly different to the
sample model stored at the test centre Air Turquoise. As a result, all pilots who flew Ozone Enzo 2 gliders in the Superfinal will
score zero. The PWCA minutes note that no responsibility can be attributed to the pilots
flying the gliders, but point the finger of moral blame at those pilots who
knew and didnt tell the truth. The conformity test on the Ozone Enzo 2 concludes that the Enzo 2.1? clearly
and unequivocally does not conform to the sample glider held by Air Turquoise.
