Last week, excellent conditions in Brazil saw some of the longest XC flights in the history of paragliding. <\/p>\n
On October 9th, Ozone team pilot Seiko Fukuoka set a new female record after flying 460 kms, beating Yael Margelisch’s 442km of 4 October. Seiko was flying with teammates Charles Cazaux and Felix Rodriguez. All flying Enzo 3. <\/p>\n
On October 10th local gurus Rafael Saladini (Enzo 3), Marcelo Prieto and Rafael de Moraes Barros flew 582km to set, again, a New paragliding world record. <\/p>\n
The same day Mexican pilot Alex Loyarte took his Zeno for an impressive 509 Km flight launching from the Rampa De V\u00f4o Livre in Patu.<\/p>\n
On October 12th, Seiko flew a bit further, landing 472 kms away from launch.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile Swiss pilot, Yael Margelisch (Enzo 3) was about to become the first female pilot to pass the 500km mark breaking the record again with an amazing 553 Km flight. <\/p>\n
Definitely a week to remember! Congrats to all the pilots and cheers from all the Ozone Team. <\/p>\n
Keep all those long flights coming!<\/p>\n
