PROTECT II RIS - Excellent opening due to RIS

The Rapid Inflation System (RIS) keeps opening time to an absolute minimum. Special bands around the base of the canopy take up an exact bending tension.

When the parachute is folded, the top band creates air channels which start the filling process in the first split seconds of deployment, significantly aiding opening behaviour. Despite the fast initial opening, the bands also ensure an exceptionally damped canopy deployment, keeping shock loads on the pilot and equipment to a minimum.

The PROTECT II RIS comes in L and XL sizes.
