PRODUCT INFORMATION

The 

ICARUS  NANO  Reserve

 is an incredible addition to the wide array of products found in 

the ICARUS 

p

roduct line. The 

SFIRE,  XFIRE, 

SAFIRE 2, CROSSFIRE 2, EQUINOX, OMNI, 

and  NEOS    are  able  to  be  combined  with  the 

ICARUS  NANO  Reserve

  to  offer  a  complete 

canopy  package  for  every  modern  skydiver/canopy  pilot  that  provides  security  and 

dependability with an incredible low volume technology. 

The 

ICARUS  NANO  Reserve

  is engineered and 

produced using  the highest construction standards and 

impressive performance that will satisfy the current 

demands of this generation of skydivers. ICARUS 

Canopies has successfully completed the ETSO-C23d by 

EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) and TSO-C23d 

(FAA) testing and certification process, complying with 

the latest and highest requirements for safety and 

performance in the industry.  

The outstanding strength and reliability of the 

ICARUS Reserve 

has been maintained; however, 

through innovation and enhancing the weaving process we are able to offer an important bulk 

reduction within 

ICARUS  NANO  Reserve

. The trust and effectiveness of the traditional 

ICARUS  Reserve

  canopy has been complemented with high resistance low bulk materials to 

assure the same high caliber of safety with an increased ability to install the 

ICARUS  NANO 

Reserve

 into smaller containers.  

ICARUS Canopies has gone again 

ONE  STEP  AHEAD

  and has designed a state-of-the-art wing 

that provides swift, accurate and reliable opening as well as incredible flight characteristics for a 

reserve canopy. Aside from the amazing opening and flight characteristics-  the landing 

performance is unparalleled making the 

ICARUS  NANO  Reserve 

the complete package from 

deployment to touch down.  The 

ICARUS NANO Reserve

 is the canopy you want to have your 

back in an emergency.  

10.1.

 

The Evolution from the ICARUS Reserve to the NANO 

In 1999, ICARUS Canopies began the 

ICARUS  Reserve

  project, in 

order to fulfill the market demand for a high quality Reserve canopy. 

In May 2002, 

ICARUS  Reserve

  certification testing began in France 

at the independent test center CEVAP (Centre d’Essais en Vol 

Aérotransport, Parachutage in Toulouse) -  D.G.A. (Délégation 

Générale pour l’Armement) – Ministère de la Défense. 

From July to September 2003, CEVAP successfully completed all the 

test drops according to ETSO-C23d certification requirements (refer to 

EASA regulations for further detail).
