Team Ozone

Everyone at Ozone continues to be driven by our passion for flying,
our love of adventure and our quest to see Ozone's paraglider devel-
opment create better, safer and more versatile paragliders. The
Ozone Team is:
Rob Whittall
Design and testing
Testing, teaching, competing and winning; the double World
Champion has flown just about every flyable day in the last 16 years.
Since turning his hand to design the results have beeen spectacular
and Rob's love of both XC and aerobatic flying can be felt through
Ozone's designs the minute your feet leave the ground.
David Dagault
Design and testing
1999 French paragliding champion, Dav Dag backs up Rob in the
design & testing whilst also running our distribution. Another keen XC
pilot, his flights of over 660 km through the French Alps in three days
still constitute the 'Official Ozone Office' record.
David Pilkington
Design and production
A doctor of aerodynamics and a keen and talented pilot too, Dr Dave
is the man behind Ozone's highly advanced computer design soft-
ware - his technical expertise slices the time from drawing board to
sky. Now based in Vietnam the Doctor also manages our custom built
factory and ensures every glider that leaves our factory is perfect.
John Pendry
Research and development
John Pendry is a legend in our sport - we think he taught Rogallo to
fly but he won't admit it! The double World Champion has finally
retired from comp flying and settled in the south of France where he
runs both a paragliding and a kite surfing school. John's vast experi-
ence and immense skill are an outstanding asset to Ozone and he
continues to work closely with our design and testing team.
Mike Cavanagh
Finance and Management
Ozone's financial wizard, Mike is the man who holds the purse
strings. A fully trained accountant, his watchful eye help keeps com-
pany overheads low and the R&D budget high. As a keen XC pilot and
a seasoned competitor, Mike is one of the few accountants who looks
forward to taking his work home.
Marcus King
Graphics, Web master and technical guru
Ozone's website grows by the day. Marcus's design and programming
skills keep our site up to date with all the news from the company as
it breaks. A keen XC pilot, Marcus is yet another member of staff who
we have to keep away from the window on classic days.
Matt Taggart
Kites
Wind surfing, kite surfing, hanggliding, paragliding and sailing; if
there's wind and sails involved then Matt's done it. An accomplished
wind surfer and a qualified skipper, Matt's meteoric rise has already
seen him competing for the British team in the 'Worlds'. When not
flying, kiting or partying Matt runs Ozone Kites.
Nadine Massie
Office Administration
If you phone the office it will probably be Nadine's voice you hear.
Nadine manages the day to day running of the office and keeps us all
in check. When she's not helping Mike with the figures she is deal -
ing with customer enquiries and making sure our service is top notch.
Nadine is the only person in the office who doesn't love those little
cumulus clouds as they get in the way of her sunbathing.
