Product Description
Gin Gliders Yeti Light Rescue
Lightweight Paragliding Reserve Parachute
Light weight doesn't have to mean small size!
The new GIN Yeti rescue parachute is—like its competitors—ultra-light and ultra-compact, but it offers 40% more surface area.
|
The #35 size, for example, weighs only 1.5 kg, yet it offers a surface area of 35 m2 and a certified sink rate of 5 m/sec., at a maximum weight in flight of 100 kg. We all know how a large surface area is important for the safety of a rescue parachute. Gin Gliders’ design brief for this new rescue was lightweight, but without compromising the surface area. 2 years of development and testing were necessary to reach this high standard of technical performance. See the Sink Rate Comparison chart opposite. Certified EN-12491 The Yeti Rescue is delivered with inner bag. Optional itemsTo mount it in the front position on your harness, use the optional Gin Gliders Light Yeti External Container and the Gin Gliders Light Yeti Rescue Y-Bridle (80cm or 125cm). |
