Description
The Performance Designs Optimum Reserve is a low-bulk reserve canopy engineered to reduce pack volume while delivering outstanding flight performance and landing capability. Constructed from proprietary 30-denier low-permeability fabric, the Optimum provides a significantly smaller pack volume compared to traditional reserves without sacrificing strength or reliability.
Advanced aerodynamic shaping and reinforced construction provide smooth, consistent openings and flight characteristics that more closely resemble a main canopy. The Optimum’s powerful flare performance and enhanced lift offer improved landing control, giving jumpers greater confidence during emergency situations.
Extensively drop-tested beyond FAA TSO C23d requirements, the Optimum Reserve delivers strength, reliability, and modern reserve performance in a compact design ideal for today’s streamlined rigs.
