Supair X LITE rescue PARACHUTE

Supair X LITE rescue PARACHUTE X LITE Ultra-light rescue At 741g (size 80), you won’t find a lighter rescue than the ultra-light X LITE. Designed specifically for Hike & Fly, it offers reliability and safety thanks to an innovative structure that optimizes Stability for a smooth descent. Its riser, developed in collaboration with COUSIN Trestec, uses a climbing-inspired design to improve resistance and effectively absorb forces when the parachute opens. Sizes: 80, 95 and 110 Weight: from 741 g without pod Colors: red and white About X LITE The X LITE is specially designed for Hike & Fly, combining maximum lightness and compactness. With a weight of just 741 g (X LITE 80), the selection of materials and optimization of its structure guarantee reliability and sturdiness while maintaining the lightest weight on the market. The X LITE brings a host of innovations to the table, not least thanks to its brand-new design riser. Developed in collaboration with COUSIN Trestec, the riser is equipped with a technology inspired by parallel-core braided climbing equipment, giving it increased strength as well as excellent elasticity. The material’s flexibility helpsabsorb some of the energy when the parachute opens. The forces applied to the canopy are reduced, enabling Use lighter materials to be used, with the best possible energy dissipation. Even at its featherweight, the X LITE makes no compromises on safety. The panel structure forms a new, flatter arch, resulting in improvedStability and a smoother descent. The assembly of the different parts of the parachute forms a “spider’s web” whose role is to redirect stress towards the edges of the parachute to dissipate energy and avoid the accumulation of force on a single point. This more robust assembly leads to a selection of Fabrics lighter parachutes, while maintaining High safety levels. Whether you’re an experienced athlete or a Hike & Fly enthusiast, the X LITE makes your life easier. With its color-coded lines and Bending markers on the panels, the X LITE makes Bending particularly quick and easy. Just follow the markings, and in just a few minutes your parachute is perfectly packed. No more excuses for putting off packing your parachute! The X LITE’s original pod is fitted with flaps specially designed for two-stage opening, avoiding the risk of interference between the two loops that hold the lines and pod in the closed position. It is possible to install the X LITE in a pod other than the original, provided that the opening system is checked for correct operation beforehand. The X LITE is available in two sizes while the third size is coming soon: X LITE 80 with a Flying weight range from 45 to 80 kg without the glider. X LITE 95 with a Flying weight range from 60 to 95 kg without the glider. X LITE 110 with a Flying weight range from 75 to 110 kg without the glider.

Available from 741 grams, the X LITE offers unrivalled lightness and compactness. Its featherweight isn’t its only advantage: thanks to its unrivalled compactness, it offers a reduced volume of just 2.02 L in size 80. So you can save weight without compromising on safety. Designed for Hike & Fly enthusiasts in search of performance and lightness, the X LITE is at the crossroads of technical innovation and minimalism. It’s a must-have for pilots riders looking for lightness without compromising on safety. DYNALINK innovation Our designers’ initial objective was ambitious: to design the world’s lightest rescue parachute while maintaining the highest level of safety and robustness High . The major challenge for the parachute is to pass the certification tests, which subject it to severe stress. The lighter the product, the greater the risk of its structure being weakened, preventing it from passing this crucial stage. To meet this challenge, SUPAIR teamed up with COUSIN Trestec and their expertise in rope technologies to develop a new kind of elevator: the DYNALINK, an exclusive innovation now protected by a patent. Today, most parachutes are equipped with a static riser and canopy reinforcements to withstand the shock of opening and guarantee the integrity of the parachute. The DYNALINK takes a completely different approach. Thanks to the elasticity of the materials used, the elevator absorbs part of the energy by deforming, reducing stress on the rest of the structure. Once the energy has been absorbed, the elevator returns to its original shape. This operation is therefore non-destructive. TheUse of this new technology enablesUse lighter materials than when the impact is borne solely by the reinforcements. Thanks to this patent-pending innovation, the X LITE pushes back the limits of design ultra-light while passing High all the homologation and safety tests required by standards. A durable parachute The X LITE’s selection of materials and design techniques give it incredible sturdiness for its weight. Like the dynamic elevator, the panel cut-outs and layout are designed to dissipate and distribute the forces and pressures to which the parachute is subjected during deployment. This “spider’s web” assembly instantly distributes stresses more evenly over the whole wing, avoiding the accumulation of these forces at a given point. A simple and obvious Bending We believe that a parachute should be easy to pack, so that the pilot can comply with the recommended packing frequencies and guarantee his safety. Although the X LITE is a lightweight, high-performance High parachute, it’s still easy to pack thanks to its multiple visual markings. These markings tell you exactly where to hold the panels to pack this square parachute correctly. Whether it’s the color-coded lines to divide the beam, the toggles to bring the panels together, or the markings for a precise Bending , the X LITE simplifies the Bending steps as much as possible. No compromise on safety The square design of the X LITE offers a better Stability of the parachute during descent, and therefore a high level of passive safety. To slow down a parachute’s descent speed, it’s necessary to design the canopy to be as perpendicular as possible to the descent trajectory. That’s why the X LITE’s Airfoil has been completely smoothed to increase the surface area oriented along this axis. This parachute optimization meets this major safety criterion, offering a reduced and safersink rate . Download the User’s manual Register your product
