The all-new 30-cell diagonal canopy class «ultra high performance» of the company Skylark! The parachute Scirocco is intended only for experienced pilots!

Harder openings are often an inherent characteristic of cross-braced canopies.
However, unlike most of the cross-braced competition, «Scirocco» has soft, predictable openings on both terminal and sub-terminal speeds. Openings are also well controlled by rear risers. The new canopy can be equipped with a patented removable deployment system (RDS). Our RDS system can be easily operated by one hand.

While diving, the front risers pressure increases. This makes it more difficult for a pilot to keep a canopy in the dive and to control the trajectory of the recovery arch. Design of the new profile along with the optimized trim has dramatically reduced the front riser pressure during an entire diving sequence. Rear risers also demonstrate stability and efficiency even during the slow flight phase.

Larger number of cells in crossed-braced canopies has always been a detrimental factor for the canopy lift at slow speeds. On the contrary, the Sciroco’s toggle input enables the pilot to utilize the energy of the dive more effectively, thus increasing distance runs and helping to maintain the perfect shape of the canopy until a complete stop.

One of the main characteristics of «Scirocco» is its smaller air intakes combined with heterogeneous 30-cell cross bracing scheme. These features dramatically improve aerodynamic stability and air flow over the surfaces of the canopy. In addition to that, increased aspect ratio, unique elliptical shape and new stabilizer design helped to decrease both profile and intake airflow resistance to minimal levels!
