Sup'Air Xtralite > Certification
The Sup'Air XTRALITE parachute is EN certified in all 3 sizes (Small, Medium & Large) to the new EN 12491 certification standard.
IMPORTANT: Due to its very low pack volume the Sup'Air XTRALITE reserve parachute might not be compatible with your harness reserve container (i.e. the reserve container may be too large, which may cause a safety issue). Contact Us for advice if you are not sure.
