Beamer 3 Light
High Adventure’s Beamer 3 Light is a fully-fledged Beamer 3 but, thanks to its weight-optimized materials, it is more than 400 grams lighter and is also smaller in volume. At 1370 grams, this is one of the lightest steerable parachutes on the market.
Fast Opening: The Beamer 3 Light’s special shape and particular folding technique help it open up to 50% faster than normal, round canopies and it’s setting EN Test records!
Low Sink Speed: Low wing loading and modest forward speed give the Beamer 3 Light an unrivaled low sink rate.
Stable Flight: The Beamer 3 Light’s trump card. After a fast opening, the Beamer 3 Light quickly takes control, going into very slow forward flight and therefore not encouraging the paraglider to disturb it. This stability, among other things, is achieved by its low wing loading. A developed braked opening configuration prevents ‘downplaning‘.
Steering and Flying Forwards – the Beamer’s Speciality! The Beamer 3 Light canopy reacts immediately to steering commands and sinks at its slowest rate. Countless examples in practice confirm the problem-free behavior of all Beamers in every possible situation.
