Envelopes-2015-1

Envelopes Z-90 with Digital Inkjet logo Clear Windows PreVent™ Racers are really put through their paces – often launching in conditions that some might frown upon. Sometimes a tricky competition launch is performed after moving from one site to another with just seconds to spare. Our PreVent™ is designed to give you added control to hold the parachute firmly seated during a difficult inflation – even when the Velcro tabs are not in place. A light tug of the control line will keep the parachute firmly sealed in the midst of a gusty inflation, even if there was no time to seal the Velcro tabs. As an added benefit, it can be used to actively hold the parachute closed if you encounter turbulence during a rapid climb. Rotation Vents Need better visibility before making a climb in congested airspace? Try our clear windows. They’ll give you the peace-of-mind that you’re clear above without having to radio your crew or a team-mate. Scoop Liner Naturally, you may want to dress-up your envelope even further by adding your own custom graphics or a company logo. No matter what your style, our artwork techniques will work for you. Whether inlaid logos, simple appliqued fabric designs or complex inkjet printed art, we’ll make you look good. • Style, Strength, Reliability Also available is a heat-reflective scoop liner. This metalized, Kevlar™-backed fabric protects the Nomex™ from prolonged radiant heat or the occasional mis-directing of the burner – after all, we’re all human. Not only must the Rotation Vents spin the balloon effortlessly, but they must seal easily without leaking. Cameron rotation vents are engineered to do just that. Rather than just slitting the panels and sewing a vertical tape (which is inexpensive but not very effective), our vents have scalloped edges that hug the panels and create an effective seal.
