Sport parachute KRAKEN

She’s a wing of legends. The Kraken delivers unprecedented opening and flare characteristics. She’s ideal for wingsuiting novices but will excite even the most experienced pilots. This hybrid low-pack volume wing has a lightweight configuration which allows the pilot to pack bigger sizes in a normal container without sacrificing fabric longevity (read about Kraken pack volume here). This coupled back with a tighter, firmer tail makes the outline curvy for high maneuverability in the sky. This wing is the ultimate ‘party in the front and business at the back’, she’s super responsive and holds tight when pushed hard. She is the canopy equivalent of Che Guevara, Marilyn Monroe and Brian Jones all in one. The Kraken is a must have for any wingsuiter and will have you grinning ear to ear as you fly back to whatever landing area you can make it to. Kidding. Kinda. Add a Squirrel SkySNATCH PC to your Kraken order for just $155 USD (normally $195 USD) using the code SKYSNATCH155 in your shopping cart. Canopies low(er) in aspect ratio and ellipticity (fat 7-cell canopies) have better heading performance, and stability in flight – good for when you’re spun up in line twists after opening – something you wingsuit pilots tell us is possible no matter how much we scream “BODY POSITION” at you! The problem with this is, wings shaped like this are not exactly renowned for their glide performance and sharp handling. So how do we make something handicapped by the very nature of its job fly well? The answer – as usual – was a combination of ideas floating around the head of NZ Aerosports aeronautical engineer Julien, and the production and test jump team.
