The PD Comp Velocity Skydiving Canopy is a high-performance, 7-cell crossbraced main canopy from Performance Designs, designed as an enhanced evolution of the original Velocity for competition swooping and advanced canopy piloting.
Building on lessons from the Velocity since 1999, it features improved aerodynamics, reliable on-heading openings, more powerful rear risers, and superior slow flight on toggles—delivering a steeper glide, long recovery arc, great shutdown power, and responsive handling.
Key Features
- Construction: 7-cell crossbraced design with all Zero Porosity (ZP) fabric for durability and performance.
- Line Options: Orange Vectran, HMA, or Vectran lines.
- Slider Options: Collapsible channel slider and/or RDS (Rapid Deployment System) for smoother deployments.
- Sizes Available: 71, 75, 79, 84, 90, 96, 103, 111 sq ft.
Performance Characteristics
- Great, consistent openings with less vibration.
- Very steep glide for recovering from long spots.
- Long recovery arc and powerful flare for precise landings.
- Responsive toggles and rear risers, ideal for high-speed turns.
Who It's For
This canopy suits highly experienced canopy pilots, first-time crossbrace users under supervision, camera flyers, competition swoopers, and those stepping up from non-crossbraced wings like the Stiletto, Sabre2, or Katana. Velocity pilots will appreciate the upgrades in openings, rear riser response, and toggle control.
Consult your rigger for container compatibility and a canopy coach for sizing based on wing loading and skill level.
