WARNING TRANGO IS A SLIDER UP ONLY CANOPY!!!


The Trango is a Specialized Alpine BASE Canopy


(NOTE: From July 2008 the Trango will be manufactured with a grey light weight fabric and a ZP leading edge.)


The Trango is a state of the art, light weight, low pack volume canopy designed for Alpine BASE jumping and serious performance flying (tracking and wingsuit).


The Trango utilizes a revolutionary new fabric that reduces the weight and packing volume of the canopy by 25%!


The smaller pack volume greatly improves the aerodynamic properties of a wingsuit specific container whilst the lower weight significantly reduces the fatigue from carrying the rig on long hikes.


The Trango uses the same design of the Troll DW canopy and is identical in every aspect of performance except that it weighs and packs much smaller!!


Combined with Spectra suspension lines, the pack volume of the TRANGO is significantly less than the TROLL DW (approximately 2 canopy sizes smaller!)


The Trango is for slider up BASE jumps only.


Although it would be possible to use the TRANGO for slider down BASE jumps, the repeated violent opening forces of slider down deployments would accelerate the aging process of the lightweight fabric.


Also, the Spectra lines, due to their characteristics, are not suited to slider off jumps.


The lightweight fabric has a slightly shorter lifespan than regular F111.


ATAIR recommend an average of 300 jumps on the standard TROLL DW (F111) and 200 jumps on the TRANGO.


To keep the canopy in good condition it is important to keep it as clean as possible taking extra care during landings to avoid damage from small stones, thorn bushes, etc.


The Trango is constructed from the highest quality materials. Each parachute is hand made to meet finest quality standards. All materials are fully inspected and traceable.


The Trango is available in the following sizes:


* 185 ft.2 = PIA spec 200

* 205 ft.2 = PIA spec 219

* 225 ft.2 = PIA spec 240

* 245 ft.2 = PIA spec 260

* 265 ft.2 = PIA spec 282



Standard with each Trango:


* Integrated Primary-Stow tail pocket


* Mesh Slider choice of large hole mesh / small hole mesh (Sail Slider available upon request. Advised for skydiving only)
