PD Pulse Main Parachute Canopy by Performance Designs delivers soft openings, responsive handling, easy packing, and reliable landings. Ideal for recreational skydivers seeking a versatile, high-performance main canopy. The Pulse by Performance Designs is a lightly elliptical nine cell canopy designed especially to suit the active intermediate to experienced “fun jumper.” A novice can also fly this canopy as long as it is loaded lightly. It is designed to provide soft and smooth openings, a very flat glide, responsive handling, and easy landings. The Pulse has a lower pack volume than typical canopies. It is very easy to pack because we put the right fabric in the right place. The canopy has Zero Porosity fabric on the top surface, end cell ribs, stabilizers, and the slider. The remainder of the parachute utilizes the same proprietary Low-Bulk Fabric as is used in PD’s revolutionary Optimum reserve. The use of this fabric combination, along with many subtle aerodynamic improvements, results in a canopy that packs small, PD Pulse main parachute canopy opens very nicely, and offers easy landings. Highlights of the Pulse are that the openings are smoother and quicker than the Sabre2 or Katana, a flat glide helps a jumper gets back easier from long spots, the landings are easier to time with less speed than the Sabre2 and the combination of zero-p and proprietary low bulk fabric. The Pulse is available in sizes of 107, 120, 135, 150, 170, 190, 210, 230 and 260 square feet. Please indicate the stock number when ordering or upload a custom order form below.
