And it begins… 261km on the new M6
Felix Woelk is currently in Brazil, testing out the recently certified Mantra M6 size MS.

Ozone Team Explores Peru
For the past couple of weeks, a few members of our team have been out exploring the mountains and coastline of Peru, and getting some images of our new gliders.
