The Triathlon is a seven-cell, zero-porosity ram-air parachute; designed for skydivers who want one parachute that does it all.
Selecting a new main parachute can be a confusing task, with many variables to consider during the decision process. Until now, choosing a main parachute has always involved making some sort of compromise. The fact is...all other parachutes are quite specialized and limited in their abilities.
Today's skydiver is much more versatile and multi-talented than ever before. Free-fall, canopy relative work, free-style, sky-surfing, sit-flying, demo jumping, cross-country flying, parabatics, and more...are all readily available to the weekend fun-jumper. Until the Triathlon, no single parachute has existed that could excel in all of those specialties!
The Triathlon is an ingenious design created and perfected by Aerodyne Research to help make your choice of a new main canopy simple and decisive.
The Triathlon is a user-friendly parachute with exceptional packing, opening, flying, and landing characteristics. It just flat-out does everything superbly...with zero bad habits!
It uses a special innovative Advanced Zero-Porosity fabric created especially for the Triathlon that is incredibly easy to pack. Our customers constantly cite the excellent fabric as a major selling point in their decision to buy a Triathlon over competing products.

The Triathlon has
achieved a superb reputation for dependably soft and consistent on-heading
openings.
The Triathlon is great fun to fly with light toggle pressure and quick turns.
The very efficient Triathlon airfoil has a fast forward speed and excellent
glide and has also achieved an excellent reputation for rock-solid stability--even
in extremely turbulent conditions.
Landings under a Triathlon are especially impressive. You can perform spectacular turf-surfs or land softly on a tight demo approach. No other canopy in the world offers such a wide range of landing capabilities! For that reason especially...the Triathlon is the canopy of choice for the world's most accomplished professional parachute demonstration teams.
The Triathlon is durable, reliable, and produced to the absolute highest quality control standards in the industry and enjoys a reputation as the most user-friendly and trouble-free parachute made!

The Triathlon comes standard with your choice of 825 Spectra or 525 Dacron lines and an innovative single drawstring collapsible slider.
