VITAL PARACHUTE > RESCUE > OCTAGON
The OCTAGON series is a rescue system for paragliding and hang-gliding
The OCTAGON and FLUFFY series is a rescue system for paragliding and parachuting. The canopy is an octagonal shape with slots at the skirts which they say makes it more stable and helps it to open quickly and efficiently.
The design offers the optimal combination of;
  • Fast opening time
  • Low descent rate
  • Highest pendulum stability
  • Compact size and ultralight weight

The OCTAGON and FLUFFY series is designed only for use in an emergency situation on a para-glider and speed-glider; it is unsuitable for free fall parachuting.
