PRODUCT INFO
Lightweight, Compact, Fun
The new LiteSpeed 3 combines light weight, dynamic handling, and an efficient design into an agile wing with low pack-volume. It has made us fall in love with mini-wings all over again!
The LiteSpeed 3 excels in a wide range of conditions, from calm-wind proximity flying to big-mountain hike-and-fly and high-wind soaring. Like the Zero 3,* it is nimble in the air and fun to fly, with glide performance that makes it comfortable at a broad range of sites.
THE TECH
The Rapido 3 evolution is focused on drag reduction and efficiency increases, yielding increased speed and glide. A new line set and fine-tuned sail tension have effectively increased the glide range while still allowing high stability at low angles of attack.
LIGHT & DURABLE
Newly engineered laser-cut crossports have reduced weight via the removal of material, without compromising the wing’s overall durability. The lighter sail means lower sail inertia and better agility. Durable main surface material ensures longevity — the Rapido 3 will last for many years of normal use. What that means to you is even easier launches, more agile barrel rolls, faster diving carves, and higher resale value.
THE PILOT
The Rapido 3 is designed for speed riding pilots who already have at least one full season flying a highly loaded intermediate wing, such as the Fazer series. The Rapido 3’s speed, dynamic handling, and swoop capability allows pilots to progress to the highest levels of the sport.
WINGLOADING
A range of sizes from 6m to 15m are available. The 6m size is only for expert pilots with previous Rapido series experience. Sizes 8 through 13 should be chosen based on wingloading and experience, with the 15m size being accessible to the widest range of skill levels.

OZONE COLOUR REFERENCE ()
FABRIC COLOURS AND UV RESISTANCE
Please be aware that the colour you see on your screen may not accurately represent the precise fabric color. Secondly, different cloths specifications with the same color name may vary slightly. Given the wide variance in monitor calibration and the fabric appearance in different light and colour combinations, it is impossible to perfectly represent fabric colour on-screen. If you have any doubts about the colours, look at photos of various wings on our website to see them in different light and colour combinations.
All of the fabric that we use undergoes extensive testing in prototype color phase to ensure colorfastness, mechanical stability, porosity, and general longevity before we put it into production. Once our fabric is in production, every meter of it is rigorously inspected upon arrival in our factory, and fabric which does not pass our stringent quality control standards is returned to the manufacturer. We are frequently asked, "Which colours last the longest, or have the best UV resistance?" All of the colours that we stock score between 4 and 5 on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the highest possible rating for longevity.
