The virtue of the Omega ULS is that it kept its glide while shedding weight. It packs a tightly winding turn and a glide that matches a class above into a light package — an irresistible combination for a pilot who has hiked to the summit. But this is an aspect-ratio 6.8 EN-D. That freedom to place the canopy wherever you want in rough air presumes hands that can deliver precise input and the experience to fly an EN-D. It is not an easy wing because it is light; it is a wing that pays back, honestly, the experienced pilot who refuses to lose D-class performance just to save weight.
