The Mini Softie is an extremely small, lightweight and comfortable backpack parachute system designed for use in today's restricted cockpit environments. The parachute and lines are stored in the container which is mounted on the back. There is no seat cushion as found on chair type parachutes. This type is best in airplanes that have seats that accommodate a back mounted parachute. Both backpack and chair types are commonly used in sailplanes - depending on how the seat pan of the glider accommodates the parachute and pilot. Chair type parachutes are usually a bit thinner than backpack type parachutes.
The Mini Softie is for use by persons weighing up to 240 lbs.
It is available with your choice of Conventional Harness or Aerobatic Harness.
Container Dimensions: 2.25" (5.7 cm) thick x 15" (38.1 cm) wide x 23" (58.4 cm) long.
- A 16" (40.6 cm) wide version is also available upon request. The added width would reduce the thickness slightly.
Canopy Type: Steerable Conical.
Total weight: 15 lbs.
Please specify your harness choice and any options when ordering.
FREE Carry-All Bag
A Carry-All Bag ($60) is required and not included by the manufacturer. Cumulus Soaring, Inc includes one FREE of charge.
Custom Sizing Available
If the parachute is for use by more than one person, the standard size is usually ideal. It is very adjustable. If only one person will be using the parachute most of the time, I recommend having it custom-made to fit you perfectly. Below are the required measurements. Please email them to me after ordering.
