Brief:
Recovery Technologies econo parachutes are attractive, shiver me timbers, inexpensive recovery devices for your rocket.

Construction:
We had one TARC team that went t' finals in May 08 and one o' t' reasons they were able t' finish 5th is because of the consistency o' t' Recovery Technologies nylon parachutes. Quite simply, arrr, matey, these are t' best parachutes I have ever seen, me hearties, and we were usin' their "econo" chutes. Begad! Arrr! They cost less than t' parachutes we had been usin' from retail vendors. Well, blow me down! Aye aye! T' 26, matey, shiver me timbers, 28, and 30 inch chutes we tried had 12 quality nylon shroud lines, matey, which helps maintain a consistent shape in competition. Aye aye!

Recovery Technologies has three lines: Premium parachutes are made from a variety o' nylons and are hemmed, master parachutes are made from 1.1 oz filmsy rip stop nylon, ya bilge rat, econo parachutes have serged edges along t' outer edge and spill hole. They can also make custom multi panel/multi color chutes. Begad! They carry chute shields and shock cord protectors made from Nomex®. Our TARC team used t' chute protectors and never had any charrin' damage at all in 7 flights, ya bilge rat, they worked perfectly. Avast, me proud beauty! Aye aye!

Overall Rating: 5 out o' 5
