The Angel

Everyone needs an Angel… even though no one really wants to use theirs. However, the fact is that when the time comes, the most important factors are safety and stability with a low sink rate for a gentle and controlled descent. The Angel 37m2 is certified to 140kg, meaning that even a pilot with a total in-flight weight of 140kg will have a stable descent of less than 5.5m/s, while most pilots will have a far slower descent with this size. We believe the Angel is one of the safest reserve parachutes in the world in terms of stability and sink rate, and its affordable price and relatively light weight make it a safe and popular choice for pilots of all abilities.
When it comes to stability and safety in round reserves, there is no substitute for surface area. For that reason, both sizes of the Angel are “big” and provide plenty of margin for the weight ranges they are certified to carry. In its two sizes, the Angel covers all pilot weights up to 140kg (total suspended inflight weight, including reserve). It is certified EN and LTF to the EN 12491 and LTF 91/09 standards.
