Stress-free, easy, fun. Did we just describe your ideal vacation? Yup. But also every day in the sky with a Silhouette.
Designed to provide responsive handling, even at lower wing loadings, this is the perfect canopy for new skydivers, conservative canopy pilots, and literally anyone who enjoys drama-free flights.
Who’s going to say “no” to consistent openings, short snivels, flat glide, short recovery arc, easy flare timing, AND lots of flare power? Go ahead, find someone, we’ll wait….
Oh yeah, and packing? Thanks to a combination of fabrics, it’s got low pack volume and is EASY to pack. You’re welcome.
