SOL Paragliders produces o complete line of rescue systems. These systems fit for beginners and professional pilots at the same time. As Sol Paragliders, we are flying a lot: testing gliders, for fun or breaking world or national records. So, it was only logic to develop our own rescue systems to assure the evolution in safety, performance, ease of operation and innovation.
The rescue system Squad Light is manually released. It was especially developed for paraglider flight. The project was designed for fast opening after release and the construction (inner / outer container), was made to avoid an accidentally opening during flight.
Limits and Inspection The Squad Light is not suitable for speeds more than 32m/s or 115 km/h. Avoid storing the reserve for long periods in areas with high humidity, heat or extreme cold, this causes premature aging of the materials and could influence the flight characteristics of your glider.
