Low Bulk Canopy For Bigger Jumper - 270-275 exit weight

[Rhino4406 0]

Hey whats up everyone, I'm trying to find my first canopy and I've just returned a  Pulse 260 DEMO that i loved a lot...  Looking for a canopy to demo that fits into my W-25 Wings Container as the Pulse did. My container holds a 210-230 I believe.. and I'm exiting at 270-275 lbs... im 38 years old and 71 jumps in 

(1-1/2yrs) and just want a big boat of a Main Canopy which the Pulse was. Wondering if there are any other 250-260 canopies that fit into a 230 bag and Container like the pulse does. Thanks for any suggestions.

Aerodyne makes the Pilot in a 250. You can order it in ZPX or UltraLPV material. The ZPX would probably pack like a 230 and the UltraLPV, a 220 - 210. However, in that size and fabric combo it's ultra unlikely you will find one used which means you'll have to buy it new.

Pulse and Pilot are the go to canopies for low bulk. I'm a dealer for both, and you are welcome to send any questions my way at [email protected]. Hard to argue with a canopy you got to try and loved though.

The Firebolt from jumpshack/parachute labs I believe is also low bulk due to hybrid fabric construction (at least it used to be). I believe they make them in larger sizes.
