Skipper offers:
soft and consistent openings
easy and safe controls
moderate descend and sufficient horizontal speed
high stability in turbulent air
good flare
low packing volume
Remarkable performance data were achieved due to use of the unique in its class technological solutions:
high, as for 7-cell, aspect ratio
planform similar to that of 9-cell canopies
special design of air intakes, that reduces deformation of the skin
With wing loadings of 1.3 or below Skipper can be recommended to the beginners. At higher loadings it becomes notably more responsive on the toggles, but stays docile enough for a skydiver of average skills. Skipper gives consistently stable and comfortable openings, sought by cameramen and wingsuit pilots.
