PD Reserve

..."Since all Reserves are certified, aren't they all the same?"...NOT HARDLY!

Look at our experience...At Performance Designs, we are the leaders in parachute technology. From rugged tandems for military use to the latest high performance designs for skydivers, we have the knowledge, experience and technology to build it right.

Look at our performance...Whether it is openings, flight characteristics or landings, Performance Designs canopies are the standard by which all others are judged.

Now look at our design...Our reserves have always been built from their "links up" as reserves. Reserves have special design and performance criteria, that's why ours are designed and built only as reserves.
Strength..

Features like I-beam construction, along with spanwise and chordwise reinforcement, make our reserves far stronger than they "need to be". Certifications are fine, but we don't stop there. Our reserves have been tested well beyond the maximum weight and speed limits required for certification.
Flight and landing..

Our reserves are Performance Designs canopies at heart. You know what that means...responsive, predictable handling, excellent glide in the brakes and outstanding landings. How important is this? Let's put it this way...bad spot, low altitude, under a reserve...now, how important do you think it is?

Performance Designs' Reserve...Performance you can count on!
When you're down to your last canopy...why would you settle for anything less?
