1. INTRODUCTION
SX is a rescue parachute system intended for use by paraglider and hang glider pilots. The system
provides additional safety in flight. Nevertheless, there is no guarantee of 100% safety in emergencies.
Although the SX is perfect for low-speed deployment, any emergency system can be misused, and
therefore become unsafe. At all times use the SX at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation
carefully view and understand all aspects of this Manual, properly fold and keep your rescue system.
2. SPECIFICATIONS
3. MAINTENANCE
As your parachute is made of nylon, it is sensitive to ultra violet radiation. The container and the
deployment bag protect the canopy from exposure to direct sunlight. However, for maximum protection,
always store your parachute away from sunlight. Heat can also be destructive for nylon. Although nylon
threads are destroyed at temperature exceeding 150°C, any heat has an ageing effect on the parachute.
Height loss depends upon both horizontal and vertical speed at the moment of deployment.
