GIN Gliders Yeti 45 Lightweight Reserve Parachute

Gin Gliders ::: Yeti Rescue 45 – Lightweight doesn’t have to mean small size!

The latest GIN Yeti reserve parachute is—like its competitors, ultra-light and ultra-compact, but, it offers 40% more surface area than most.

This large size parachute weighs only 2.1kg, yet it offers a surface area of 45 m2 and a certified sink rate of 5.25 m/sec., at a maximum weight in flight of 150kg.

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 to produce a size suitable for the majority of paramotor pilots and lightweight tandems, but without compromising the surface area. 2 years of development and testing were necessary to reach this high standard of technical performance.

Certified EN-12491

The Yeti Rescue is delivered complete with inner deployment bag, ready to go into your harness or container.
