Ozone Queen 2 Light S — Sport-Class Performance at Hike-and-Fly Weight

Going light usually comes at a price. Less cloth makes the climb up the hill easier, and you pay for it in glide. What makes the Queen 2 Light S unusual is that it never pays. A 4kg wing held its glide next to an Artik 5 24 loaded to the top, and matched the Alpina 3 S in both faint lift and strong cores. Still, it would be a mistake to read it as an easy C simply because it is light. Light brakes and agile response also mean the pilot's hands go straight into the wing. For a pilot ready for the active flying an EN-C demands, this is a rare chance to have both a light pack and competition performance. This is not a wing that shed performance to be carried uphill. It is a wing for the pilot who intends to walk up and then race.
