Search And Rescue emergency payload drop
Worked great to slow the drop speed for emergency drop test of two 20oz bottles from a SAR Drone 100 feet + and 200 feet +

Great Product - Second Review
I’ve previously left a review of the ripstop parachutes. My experience with them since my initial review has only strengthened my initial opinion. I’ve purchased the full range of sizes. The material is light enough to pack nicely in the body tube and 8 suspension lines gives a nice stable descent. The older model chutes that come with the PS2 kits are great, but these parachutes take up less bulk when packed and are very colorful. I’ve used these a lot and they are a great product.
