Krisis Karré Kortel Rescue parachute

Krisis Karré: the square parachute from Kortel

The brand-new Kortel Design rescue parachute, the Krisis Karré, features 3 main innovations:

Firstly, the Karré's unique design generates a horizontal speed after opening. This creates lift, significantly improving sink rate. It also provides greater stability than a conventional hemispherical.

Secondly, this horizontal speed also provides a glide ratio of around 1.5, enabling the pilot to steer the parachute using the handle system, and thus avoid potential obstacles during descent.

Last but not least, the asymmetrical shape of the parachute means it can be folded to improve opening speed, without complicating the packing process.

The Krisis Karré is therefore a Semi-Drigeable parachute

The design of the pod and the low compression of the reserve in the pod allow for improved extraction, particularly with harnesses with drawer pockets. It also features a more compact pod for use in the ventral position. Last but not least, the UV riser protectors are ideal for use in open-air setups, such as tandem flights.
