PRODUCT INFORMATION
Maximum safety is no longer a goal – it has become a reality. With the new Octagon 2 your emergency parachute landings will be smooth, controlled and much more docile, thanks to reduced oscillation and an incredibly low descent rate.
For many pilots the emergency parachute is an essential element of their flying equipment and it is a complex decision which type to purchase. Until now. The Octagon 2 is one of the most advanced and safest parachutes on the market due to the evolution of its already famous and distinctive octagonal design. The best features and the latest technology are combined to increase the pilot’s options to the maximum.
The incorporation of a stabilization system into the octagonal design results in an oscillation rate between 0 to 5º – well below the current average rate between 10 to 15º. With such small oscillation, the pilot avoids the pendulum effect during the descent and the risk of accelerating the fall is absolutely zero. Undoubtedly, one of the most stable parachutes in the world.
