A hemispherical parachute…

The SHINE is a new-generation Pull Down Apex round parachute. It replaces the Light and X-tralite models in our lineup, which we have been offering for many years. Designed and developed by our in-house engineering team, it uses a proven 20-decitex fabric and an all-Dyneema line system.

Its weight and volume specifications are very similar to those of the X-tralite model and significantly better than those of the Light model (15 to 20% lighter and more compact*), all for a suggested retail price that’s almost identical to that of the Light model!

The SHINE parachute is, of course, certified to EN 12491 and LTF 9109
