# Ozone Submarine – Competition Pod Harness - Link: https://paraglidingequipment.com/ozone-submarine-pod-harness/ - Published: 2022-10-21T00:18:50-06:00 - Author: Ambrin Anam **The Submarine is a super 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 at a glance * World’s first full cockpit fairing harness * Ram-air design, no fans or batteries * Envelope redesigned and updated in 2026 (V 1.5) * Hands-free air-tight magnetic closure * Inner tail structure reduces risks for vision obstruction during stalls. * **Type:** XC Pod * **Sizes:** 3 sizes: S, M, L * **Pilot height:** 160–194 cm (5′3″ – 6′4″) * **Weight:** 8.1–8.25 kg (17.9–18.2 lb) depending on size * **Certification:** EN 1651-2018 ## Watch the Submarine ![Ozone Submarine](https://paraglidingequipment.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/ozone- submarine-pod-harness-768x512.webp "Ozone Submarine – Competition Pod Harness 1") ## Understanding your Submarine ### Features * Magnetic hands-free pod closure. * Double slider zip for the upper body closure. * Large side storage pockets. * Direct instrument access with large magnetic slot. * Long reserve compartment zipper in V1.5 for a smoother extraction. * Revised rescue closing system to reduce the risk of inadvertent zipper opening. ### The Pilot The Submarine is a no-compromise racing harness for top level competitions and the longest cross-country flights. It is intended only for pilots who understand and accept the safety and ease of use compromises inherent in a high-performance harness. ### The Tech ![Ozone Submarine in flight, photo 2](https://paraglidingequipment.com/wp-content/ uploads/2026/11/ozone-submarine-pod-harness-2-768x512.webp "Ozone Submarine – Competition Pod Harness 2") ![Ozone Submarine in flight, photo 3](https://paraglidingequipment.com/wp-content/ uploads/2026/11/ozone-submarine-pod-harness-3-768x512.webp "Ozone Submarine – Competition Pod Harness 3") Years of feedback from the world’s top pilots helped us to improve many essential details. A unique magnetic pod closure system is air-tight and hands-free. The new inner structure of the tail prevents the tail from obstructing the pilots view in stall. It also features a new upper body closure system, larger pockets, and easier access to instruments. Thermal comfort inside the pod remains excellent. Nomenclature: V1.5 means this is the Version 1 of the Submarine structure, and the 5th generation envelope. ### Certification The Submarine is EN 1651-2018 certified for pilots up to 120kg. ### In Flight The Submarine’s performance and comfort have now been thoroughly proven in the highly competitive PWC circuit and during world record distance flights. We thank the pilots who assisted us during the multi-year development process. The Submarine has won virtually every major event since its release. Solid yaw stability is noticeable at high speeds thanks to the optimised shape of the profile. The overall comfort of the Submarine’s structure helps to save energy needed for long and demanding flights. The new magnetic hands-free pod closure provides increased safety on take-off, landing, and allows trouble-free low saves. The risk of pilot vision being obstructed by the tail during stalls and back flights is now reduced. Pockets and instrument panel were made larger and easier to access. All improvements have made it a more user-friendly competition harness.

At the heart of it, the unique magnetic closure system is our answer to a good technical challenge: making entry and exit effortless while improving airtightness and surface aspect. Low saves have never been this fun! Baptiste Lambert, Harness Designer The unique magnetic closure now offers me the pleasure to crank up inside the thermal just after take-off without bothering about anything else than flying…. The unique magnetic closure now offers me the pleasure to crank up inside the thermal just after take-off without bothering about anything else than flying. True pilot story: Superfinal 2024. At the end of a crazy final push where the leading group arrived very low to the end of speed section, I was 20 meters above a field, which meant potentially landing within a few seconds. By reflex, I reached for the zipper until I realized I had no zipper! One second later, I found a lift that saved my task. Another story I can share: Due to a configuration conflict, my XC Track was often crashing and I often had to reboot the task during the race. The instrument access was just as easy as an open cockpit.
