THE WORKHORSE OF YOUR TANDEM OPERATION

The A2 is an elliptical 9-cell canopy, built completely from ZP fabric to maintain consistent performance. Its airfoil and moderate planform factor guarantee superb handling characteristics, to minimize the workload of tandem masters.

Not only will they find the toggle pressure, turn response and flare power they have been seeking, but they will be pleasantly surprised by the soft on-heading openings.

The turn recovery and ability to slow the canopy in no wind conditions are additional features that will be greatly appreciated by all tandem masters.

The A2 is equipped with Spectra suspension lines which make for considerably less bulk and a more compact container on their back. With their lower weight the Spectra lines also reduce the risk of line dump and subsequent premature opening of the deployment bag, a significant cause of malfunctions.

Aerodyne have designed this canopy to maximize safety, but at the same time they made it an economical tool that will maximize the number of jumps per day. To reduce packing time, they chose a hybrid construction and added color coded line attachments.

To reduce air time, Aerodyne built a wing that will fly slowly in brakes, but gives you a significantly higher rate of descent when flown at full glide.

The A2 comes standard with Spectra 1500 lines, a slider with “super lightweight” stainless steel grommets, and #6 stainless steel rapide links. Naturally the A2 is compatible with all tandem harness-container systems on the market today.

If durability, flight characteristics, and efficiency are important, while maximizing tandem safety and enjoyment, the A2 can offer an unbeatable combination. All of this coupled with the world’s most stringent quality control standards (ISO 9001) and an unparalleled investment value in a tandem canopy.

It is the tandem canopy you have been looking for but could never find, until now.

The Solo Main Canopy …When it’s time for your students to fly solo… This is the canopy.

It is all about confidence and reliability. Whether you are a drop zone owner or a first jump student, the last thing you need to be concerned with is your equipment. The Solo student canopy can give you that confidence. Strong where it needs to be, forgiving when it has to be, the Solo provides all of the characteristics needed for successful student training.

The Solo is durable, with extra reinforcement, while being easy to pack. Its opening flight and landing characteristics have been tailored to allow you to teach your students proper modern piloting techniques. This has become vitally important in today’s world of high performance canopies. Aerodyne has even considered the difficult transition path from student to novice and beyond. As the student becomes more experienced and is prepared to downsize, the Solo’s design allows for a natural transition to our Pilot canopy. This allows the novice canopy pilot an easy and straightforward transition from student equipment to their own, without the need to “re-learn” the canopy’s characteristics. This provides a much safer and more enjoyable transition, with continued learning.

Aerodyne has even built in visual cues to allow for easier PRO packing training. By utilizing color-coded line attachments, the student learns proper packing techniques in much less time and with greater confidence.

Available in ZPX Fabric for an additional cost.

The Triathlon RW is a seven-cell, zero-porosity ram-air parachute, designed for skydivers who want one parachute that does it all.

Today’s skydiver is much more versatile and multi-talented than ever before. Free-fall, canopy relative work, freeflying, sky-surfing, sit-flying, demo jumping, cross-country flying, parabatics, and more…are all readily available to the weekend fun-jumper. Until the Triathlon, no single parachute has existed that could excel in all of those specialties! The Triathlon is an ingenious design created and perfected by Aerodyne to help give you a simple choice for a new main canopy.

The Triathlon is a user-friendly parachute with exceptional packing, opening, flying, and landing characteristics. It just flat-out does everything superbly…with zero bad habits!

The Triathlon is constructed from advanced zero porosity fabric and has achieved a superb reputation for dependably soft and consistent on-heading openings.

The Triathlon is great fun to fly with light toggle pressure and quick turns. The very efficient Triathlon airfoil has a fast forward speed and excellent glide and has also achieved an excellent reputation for rock-solid stability–even in extremely turbulent conditions.

Landings under a Triathlon are especially impressive. You can perform turf-surfs or land softly on a tight demo approach. The wide range of landing capabilities leaves all of your options open. These landing characteristics are the reason the Triathlon is the canopy of choice for the world’s most accomplished professional parachute demonstration teams.

The Triathlon is durable, reliable, and produced to the absolute highest quality control standards in the industry and enjoys a reputation as one of the most user-friendly and trouble-free parachute made! If you are a person who might enjoy doing CRW one morning, freeflying in the afternoon and a big way at the end of the day, the Triathlon can do it all.

TRIATHLON CRW

The Triathlon Competition CRW Series are highly specialized parachutes designed exclusively for World-Championship level competition.

This canopy uses the basic Triathlon airfoil–but has been highly modified for maximum CRW scoring performance by professional teams. The inlet is an open design with a modified sweep angle for maximum opening consistency and minimum inflation time. The canopy also features a mesh slider and tail-pocket deployment system. The reinforcing tape on this canopy is industrial-strength to survive the rigors of competitive CRW team use.

It is important to note that he Triathlon Competition CRW Series is designed for sub-terminal competition exits. It cannot be comfortably deployed at free-fall speeds–and may cause serious injury if used for traditional free-fall purposes.

The Triathlon Competition CRW Series is the choice of the current CRW World Champion Russian Army team as well as the silver medallist Italian CSE team, and bronze medallist French National Team.

These canopies are typically ordered in sets of four or more by teams. Aerodyne Research has several former CRW World Champions on staff to provide the specialized individual guidance necessary to suggest perfectly matched performance and to select proper wing loading at the very-high levels preferred by World-Class competitors.

Exciting Features:

• A highly modified Triathlon, complying with the demands of CRW competitors.
• Consistent openings with a minimum of inflation time.
• Comes with a mesh-slider and a tailpocket deployment system.
• Constructed from zero porosity fabric.
• Heavy leading edge reinforcement.
• Designed for subterminal exits only.
• The canopy of choice for world champion teams and anyone who would like to compete against them.
• The Triathlon is available in ZPX Fabric. (This option is additional cost).

TRIATHLON HYBRID

The Hybrid is terrific for those jumpers who want a canopy adapted and reinforced for intermediate to advanced CRW that can also be comfortably deployed in free-fall.

The Triathlon Hybrid airfoil is identical to the RW version with the addition of ¾ inch leading edge reinforcing tape and the proprietary Aerodyne Research 4-point retractable pilot chute system. Center ‚A‘ and ‚B‘ lines are non-cascaded and made of high-visibility orange 900 pound Dacron.

The Triathlon Hybrid is extremely popular for many skydivers because nearly everyone does some CRW at one time or another. For only an additional $100, the extra reinforcing, pilot-chute retraction system, and non-cascaded centerlines are a real bargain–eliminating the potential need to purchase another costly, specialized, CRW canopy.

Many Hybrid owners purchase our kill-line collapsible pilot chute for use on non-CRW jumps. When the opportunity for some serious CRW arises, they simply swap the KLPC with the retractable CRW bridle and a standard pilot chute–a process that takes only a few minutes. The KLPC is quick and easy to pack and saves wear and tear on the CRW bridle as well as eliminating a step from packing when the retractable bridle is not needed.

Exciting features:

• The one canopy that does it all.
• An ingeniously designed 7-cell canopy combining user-friendly handling characteristics with outstanding performance.
• Zero-p fabric.
• Smooth predictable handling.
• No other canopy offers such a wide range of landing capabilities from Demo to Swoops.
• New steering line configuration for increased flare power.
• Small pack volume due to seven cell construction.
• Comes standard with spectra line, soft links, and collapsible slider with “super-lightweight” stainless steel grommets.
• The only CRW canopy that can be deployed comfortably at terminal freefall speeds.
• Fully prepared for CRW, with leading edge reinforcements, Aerodyne’s 4-points pilotchute retraction system and non-cascaded A- and B-lines.
• Can be configured easily and quickly for freefall jumps, by replacing the retraction system with a common kill line pilotchute.
• Available sizes: 99, 120, 135, 150, 160, 175, 190, 210, 220, 240, 260

The Smart Reserve combines more than 30 year of experience in the parachute industry and incorporates the latest 7-cell technology. Thousands of real life cutaways and landings are testimony to the quick and reliable openings, the solid flight performance and the powerful landing flare.

The construction of the Smart uses high tensile strength 0-3 cfm low porosity ripstop fabric, spectra suspension lines and ample reinforcement tapes. Extra strength is obtained through the use of lateral reinforcement tapes between the line attachment points as well load distribution tapes that radiate from the steering line attachment points.

All this has resulted in a reserve parachute that will withstand the shock loads related with today’s higher freefall speeds and still offer acceptable opening forces for the jumper. It also offers amazing glide performance for a 7-cell, which greatly improves one’s chances to reach a favorable landing spot.

Another safety aspect of the Smart is the relatively long toggle stroke. This reduces the risk of an unwanted stall during the landing flare, a phenomenon often observed with other designs. As a matter of fact, Aerodyne engineers have built flight characteristics into the Smart that are similar to those of today’s main canopies. This helps a nervous jumper to handle the situation and make a safe landing.

Following subjection to the most severe tests and the auditing of our production facilities, the Smart is certified under the US FAA TSO-C23d and the European ETSO-C23d.

With this reserve on your back you will do better than just look Smart!

Exciting features:

• One of the few reserves approved under the latest TSO-C23d as well as the European JTSO.
• Tested far beyond the requirements for deployment weight and speed.
• The Smart is manufactured under the strict ISO 9001 quality management system.
• The only reserve with additional radial reinforcement in the tail section.
• High lift wing and advanced aerodynamics provide maximum low-speed lift for comfortable landings.
• Peace of mind packed into the smallest possible container.
• Available in a large range of sizes.
• Small pack volume.
• Available in sizes of 99, 110, 120, 135, 150, 160, 175, 190, 220 and 250.
