Radical Canopy
The Radical is a state of the art high
performance elliptical 9-cell canopy that has been designed for experienced
canopy pilots. The Radical
is a delight to fly with soft openings, excellent
speed range, low front riser pressure, gradual recovery arc and long powerful
flare.
The Radical is excellent for swooping but can also be flown conservatively
and lands easily even on straight in approaches with out using
front risers.
The Radical 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. The Radical also incorporates
the Atair 2 Stage Opening Technology, originally used on the Atair Cobalt
Canopy, which provides soft predictable on heading openings. High grade zero
porosity fabric and top class manufacturing guarantee a canopy that performs
excellently and will keep doing so for many hundreds of flights.
