Parachute X-Form 45cms

X-form parachutes tend to provide a more stable descent as compared to the typical hexagon parachutes. They can also twist a little bit upon descent, so a swivel type attachment is recommended for the larger sizes. An X-form parachute also tends to pack more tightly than a comparable hexagon shaped parachute because there's less fabric overall. This X-form parachute has both rectangles being 45cms (18") in length. The width of the rectangular sections is 1/3 of the length. So a 45cms X-form parachute has rectangular sections that are 15cms (6") in width. These are constructed with the side panels sewn on separately which means that there isn't a double layer of fabric on top of the parachute. This allows them to be packed more tightly than other brands. Colour may differ from that shown
