The Alta GT is a new breed of paraglider! It packs up the best level of performance achievable in the category while retaining the ease of use found in the EN-A class. It combines the lightness needed for hike and fly or traveling, and the durability expected by novice pilots. It's the first glider introducing you to the Ozone GT range.

The Pilot

The Alta GT is designed for pilots who "want it all", in a highly safe and reliable wing. It is a great first wing when you start thermal up, or enjoy your first hike and fly adventures. If you want the performance necessary to fly your first XC, but prioritize ease of use and safety, and also want a light and versatile wing for everyday flying, then the Alta has what you need.

The Tech

The Alta GT contains design technology that has pushed the boundaries of performance in our most advanced wings.

• Double transversal shaping for high efficiency in the nose and leading edge.
• Optimized intake positioning for high internal pressure and good chord stability for handling and performance.
• The lower intake section benefits from an innovative new feature which eliminates vibration common in lower aspect ratio designs.
• 3D referenced rib alignments for optimal airflow and efficiency.
• The high arc design combined with winglets offers the best of both worlds: better handling, and good roll stability and spiral behaviour.
• A new and unique profile developed from the Moxie provides fast and easy inflation and launch.
• The low drag line plan and materials was developed from knowledge gained in the X-Alps wing R&D program.
• Its every-day durability makes the Alta GT more than just a light wing!

In Flight

It sits solidly in the EN A category in terms of passive safety and reliability, yet has the glide performance of a mid-range EN B. Whether you're launching from a coastal dune or a high alpine col, going XC or just thermalling locally, the Alta will take you there with ease.

This unique combination of design tech has created a wing that is forgiving, easy to launch and fly, durable enough to be your only wing, and light enough to carry anywhere.

The GT Range

GT stands for Gran Turismo or Grand Tourer, and is our semi-light glider range, providing the in-flight benefits of a lower canopy weight and the robustness close to a standard weight wing with better longevity than dedicated light wings. The GT range is an expression of our true-performance promise; light, agile and safe with class leading performance in the most demanding conditions.
