Gin Yeti Rescue: light PDA reserve
The GIN Yeti Rescue paragliding and paramotoring emergency reserve parachute is—like its competitors—light and compact, but it offers 40% more surface area.
For example, the 35 size weighs only 1.5 kg, yet it offers a surface area of 35 m2 and a certified sink rate of 5 m/sec., at a maximum weight in flight of 100 kg.
- Light and compact
- Certified EN-12491
- 6 sizes, covering weights up to 220 kg
We all know how a large surface area is important for the safety of a reserve parachute. Gin Gliders’ design brief for this new reserve was lightweight, but without compromising the surface area. 2 years of development and testing were necessary to reach this high standard of technical performance.
Note: This product was previously known as the Yeti Light Rescue. The name has now been updated, but it’s the same trusted model—just with a new name. If you’re searching for the Yeti Light Rescue, you’re in the right place!
