Looking for a parawing in Ireland? This is the country's deepest parawing shelf — Ozone, F-One, North and now Core, all stocked here in Galway, plus the boards to pair them with and the only 1:1 parawing lessons on the west coast. Parawinging is the fastest-growing corner of foiling for good reason: a wing that packs down to the size of a lunchbox, gets you onto foil, then stashes in your pocket while you ride swell. On a coast with as much open Atlantic swell as ours, it's a cheat code.
Ozone parawings in Ireland
Ozone make three of our favourites — a wing for every stage of the journey, from first stashes to outright performance.
Ozone Powerpack (from €889) — the one to start on. Accessible, durable and forgiving, built specifically for riders getting into parawinging and downwind foiling. Easy handling and friendly power delivery — our full thoughts are in getting into parawinging.
Ozone Pocket Rocket V2 (from €919) — the performance pick. A high-performance parawing for downwind foiling and wing crossover that packs down small enough to stash in a pocket, in sizes from 1.9 to 4.3m² and up. Fair warning: it's in such demand it's on back-order — every delivery is spoken for before it lands, so WhatsApp us or email to get your name on the next shipment. We rated the original highly in our Pocket Rocket first impressions, and the V2 sharpens it — see how it stacks up against F-One's performance offering in Pocket Rocket V2 vs Frigate.
Ozone Afterburner (from €1,569) — NEW — the performance flagship for intermediate to advanced riders: Ozone's ultimate upwind/downwind parawing, in six sizes from 3.0m² (18–40 knots) to 6.5m² (8–19 knots). The first production run sold out worldwide before most shops opened a box — we're taking orders now for the September delivery. The independent reviews have been outstanding; we've gathered the best of them in our Afterburner first look.
F-One Frigate — catch and stash
The F-One Frigate (from €949) is F-One's first pocket wing, designed to take you further — catch the bump, stash the wing, surf the ocean. It's in stock now in more sizes and colours than anything else on the shelf, so if you want one before the weekend, this is the one we can hand you today.
North Ranger — the downwind specialist
The North Ranger (from €599) is a super short-bridled single-skin kite built for downwind foiling — and the sharpest price of the six. If you're Ranger-curious on a budget, it's a serious amount of parawing for the money.
Core Lotus — the wave specialist
The Core Lotus (from €919) is Core's first parawing — and we're the only approved Core dealer in the Republic of Ireland. It's a single-skin, high-aspect design with Nitinol reinforcements holding the leading edge's shape, tuned for one thing above all: maximum flow on the wave. Strong upwind drive gets you back out, it stashes effortlessly, and it relaunches instantly when the ride's over. Four sizes cover 12–35 knots (4.8m² down to 2.5m²), and it comes complete with pre-assembled bar, harness line and backpack. The full Core story — Lotus included — is in our Core in Ireland round-up.
The boards that make it work
Parawinging rewards a mid-length board with glide. The Appletree Midlength V2 was optimised for parawing from the drawing board and is what we'd put under most riders; the North Midi is the crossover that also covers winging and Foil Drive. Pair either with a Code foil — we're the country's only Code Foils dealer — and you've a downwind setup nobody else in Ireland can put together from stock.
