Fruity Chutes Iris Ultra Standard All Nylon Parachutes, 36" to 120"

The Iris Ultra standard parachute is ideal for applications like rocketry where weight may not be as critical. These parachutes feature a toroidal shape which results in a Cd of at least 2.2! This means you can use a smaller sized parachute for the same load carrying performance. Said another way, the Iris Ultra 72" will outperform the elliptical 84" Custom, and the Iris 84" will outperform the elliptical 96. Additionally, due to the way the canopy is shaped, these parachutes have less material compared to the same size elliptical parachutes. We carry stock colors for all parachutes in alternating red/white, yellow/black, or orange/black. Alternatively, you can order custom-colored parachutes; lead time is about five weeks.
