The standard canopy on Six Chuter Legend Tandem Powered Parachutes. Meets ASTM standards for Special and Experimental Light Sport. Includes canopy stuff sack and line socks.
The Sunriser was the first High-Lift wing ever introduced to the Powered Parachute market. First introduced as the PP-500 in 1987 it has gone through several evolutions to make it what it is today, still the highest lift rectangular wing on the market. We currently offer two sizes of the Sunriser, a 500 and a 550 SQ FT model. The Sunriser 500 is designed for the lighter two-place machine and has been the standard for many years. In fact, the Sunriser 500 was the wing of choice in the James Bond movie “The World is Not Enough”. The Sunriser 550 was introduced in 2002, to meet the requirements for the newer, heavier two-place machines or the person who just wants a little extra lift on those warm days. Both the 500/550 have very nice turns and are easy to inflate and launch.
