From now on, there are no more arguments for flying without a reserve parachute! The ultralight TAPA X-ALPS reserve parachute was developed specifically for Hike&Fly and X-Alps pilots for whom every gram counts. The square reserve weighs only 784 grams in its smallest size, making it the ideal companion for pilots looking to optimize their lightweight equipment.
The symmetrical structure of the TAPA X-ALPS helps minimize lateral drift. This reduces the risk of unpredictable drift, and combined with its large surface area, it ensures a low sink rate. Thanks to its design, the square reserve parachute has a very short opening time and high pendulum stability – two factors that can be crucial when the going gets tough.
Reliability and durability are ensured by high quality standards and precise and consistent monitoring of lightweight materials. With careful handling and regular folding intervals, you can rely on the TAPA X-ALPS for many years to come.
