Cruciform rescue parachute EVO Cross from Independence.
Very low sink rates, best pendulum stability and very fast openings - the system has proven its value in numerous tests and emergency situations, which made Independence the most sold cross reserve manufacturers.
The EVO Cross series combines highest pendulum stability, lowest sink rates and fastest opening times in one rescue system. Thus EVO Cross is one of the most reliable available rescue systems. All major organisers of security trainings in Germany and abroad, who have tested EVO Cross, agree: "EVO CROSS - the square of safety."
Another important detail regarding safety attributes is the fabric colour: orange is clearly visible in a forest, on a rock or almost every other surface.
