When we decided to introduce a new canopy to the high-end, non-crossbraced 9 cell market, we took time to ask a lot of questions and to get a lot of answers from canopy pilots across this segment of skydivers. Many of our staff skydivers come directly from this segment, and it didn’t take long for these guys to clearly express what they want in the perfect high performance 9 cell canopy.
They want predictable openings without having to worry about getting slam dunked or spun-up one way or the other. They want responsive, smooth, and predictable front riser control without churning the canopy into a wild rodeo ride. They want plenty of managable energy at the bottom end of the flight for those consistent dreamy landings.
The Nitron truly exhibits all of the finest qualities we were looking for, and we are pretty finicky about quality and performance. This is, without a doubt, the finest 9 cell non crossbraced design on the planet, and we have seen them all.
The Nitron is 100% American made with 100% American factory service The Nitron features HMA (Technora) suspension lines for lowest bulk and drag, as well as for longevity and durability. The continuous line configuration has no cascades, and enables a more stable trim package for enhanced performance and control. Our snag resistant collapsible slider comes standard. The Nitron is available in 8 sizes ranging from 78 to 170 square feet.
