Apco Aviation started manufacturing the Mayday
in 1984, and since then put over 20 000 pieces into service in the
Paragliding and Hang Gliding markets. The Mayday has hundreds of life
saving deployments to its name, from beginners to world champions.
The Mayday boasts superior construction and materials. The canopy cloth
is F111 "zero porosity" ripstop nylon. The skirt and apex skirt is
reinforced with military spec nylon tape, neatly wrapped and
stitched with a precision four-needle machine. The line attachments have
V-Tab reinforcements, sewn in place with a computerized machine,
ensuring consistently high quality and strength.
The Bridle is made from 6000 pound Nylon Webbing (UV Resistant). The
attachment loop is covered with a Teflon sheath, to protect it from
dangerous friction which may occur during deployment. Finally the bridle
has a line sheath attached, to protect the lines where they link to it.
The new PPG Reserve Container will fit the
Mayday Reserves plus many other brands. Designed specifically for
paramotoring.

Nervures PLUM Lightweight Reserve $900

Following extensive research on the Skytex 27
fabric with Porcher Sport, Nervures have developed with the same team of
engineers an ultra light material dedicated specifically for reserve
parachutes. This material combines very high lightness with extremely
high resistance to tear required to pass the stringent certification (EN
12491) tests.
The Nervures Plum Reserve Parachute is certified in three sizes: S, M, L
Not only is the PLUM Reserve ultralight but it will also pack extremely
small. Nervures have designed a specific ultralight front mount
container. This reduces the presence of the reserve on your harness.
The PLUM is available in two versions: Type 1 is for
harnesses such as the Nervures Bivouac or Expe that lack shoulder
mounted reserve attachment points and Type 2 for most harnesses that
have shoulder mounted reserve attachment points.
A special ultralight reserve container is available
for the Nervures PLUM. The container will also hold the Sup'air Xtralite
and Sky Paragliders Sky Lite reserve parachutes. 6.9 ounces/194 grams.
Free Shipping in the USA on orders over $100.
SPECIAL NOTE: Due to the small size of the PLUM reserve parachute, it
might not be compatible with your harness container. Please contact the
harness manufacturer before installing.

opening time and reduces pendular instability. SAVEMAX parachutes have
the most modern emergency reserve technology in paragliding.
They are made of high tenacity Nylon 6.6 which is specific to
parachutes. All SAVEMAX models have a Pulled down system (APEX). The low
porosity size of the fabric (0-3 cfm) follows the F-111 Standard.
The lines are Nylon with great elasticity to minimize opening impact.
The points of connection for the lines are sewn with Nylon high tenacity
tape. The risers are tested to 1,800 kg. (3960 lbs.)
