On September 20th, our friend Veso Ovcharov set a new Infinity Tumbling World Record in the North of Bulgaria. He was flying his OZONE SESSION 17m.

With the help of a hot air balloon, Veso reached an altitude of 6500m before he performed a roll-over exit from the basket to begin the attempt. After nineteen minutes, he had completed 612 consecutive tumbles, setting a new world record.

Veso says of the Session 17m: “It flies stable and doesn’t need major corrections, just resting on the risers. In maneuvers it almost doesn’t bend at all”

Congrats Veso for an amazing achievement, and cheers from all the OZONE Team.
