What makes them different is that there is a fantastic pattern printed on the cloth before it is sewn. The colors soak into the white fabric, so the color shows through on both sides of the parachute. You can't tell which is the inside versus the outside, since the color is so vibrant on both sides of the fabric.

Another thing that is different on these parachutes is that the suspension lines are thinner compared to other brands of nylon parachutes. The advantage of this is that they pack up into a smaller bundle, so you can use them in skinnier rockets and still be assured they are loose enough to eject without plugging up the tube. Other manufacturers use thicker string because it is easier to sew onto the canopy. But we've solved that problem, so thinner lines are used, and they are just as strong as the bulky ones.

Choose from three popular sizes, 24" diameter, 36" diameter, and the huge 58" diameter chute that is so huge, it seems to blot out the sun. And the price? You're going to be shocked how low it is compared to a multi-panel chute, which has a starting price of $25 for a small 24 inch diameter chute.

Nothin' fancy here -- ok -- so they are nothing more than black plastic garbage bags... But they are the "Double Strength" variety, so they are stronger than most others, and very thin too: only .8 MIL (20.3 micro-m). So when you are in a hurry and don't have time to cut your own chutes, these will come in handy. The black color is for high visibility - you can see them for miles as your model floats away.They are also "precision" cut hexagons, so all the sides and angles are very exact, giving you a uniform shape (the measurement of the size is made across the flats, and not corner-to-corner). Each comes with shroud line and 6 little reinforcement rings that make line attachment easy and makes the attachment very strong.

The price isn't bad either. Compare our $5.78 price for the 24 inch chute against Estes' (their catalog shows a price of $8.19).

This is a monster-size plastic parachute! At 32 inches across the flat edges, this is the largest printed plastic parachute ever made. Because it was designed for larger rockets, it has two extra suspension lines so it can safely handle heavier loads. That is eight suspension lines, instead of the standard 6 for the chutes listed above. Designed for Dyna-Star Mid-Power Model Rockets, it includes instructions, reinforcement rings, and heavy-duty cotton cord for the suspension lines.
