Troll DW Canopy

Troll CanopyThe Troll DW is now the worlds most popular BASE canopy. Fast on heading openings, crisp handling, good deep brake flight and a
powerful flare make the Troll an excellent all round BASE canopy perfect for slider up and slider down jumps. The Troll was created using
specialised computer software for designing and analysing low speed airfoils and wings. The 3D wing is transfered into 2D top and bottom
panels and ribs. Using Advanced Technology AIR foil shaping methods, it is possible to obtain a parachute wing which has desired airfoil
shape over the whole wing span not only at the ribs. Although the aspect ratio generally has a much greater effect on parachute
performance than airfoil design, the Troll's airfoil section is used to tailor the flight characteristics to suit the intended use.

The Troll is also available with the MDV valve system (Mono Directional Valve). The valves consist of a tubular shaped funnel attached to
a mesh inlets on cells 2,3,4,5 & 6. This design allows the air to flow in to the cells during deployment and also during deep brake descent. The valves
close during normal flight and do not have an effect on glide ratio. The MDV inlets allow the canopy to inflate and pressurise faster when jumping slider
down, giving the jumper a controllable canopy quicker whilst also using less altitude. Troll is constructed using the highest grade materials available. Each
parachute is hand made to meet finest quality standards. All materials are fully inspected and traceable.
