In 1994, United Parachute Technologies unveiled the Vector 3 Harness/Container system - the first FreeFly rig on the market. This new design incorporated concepts that originated through years of research and development, and was introduced to meet the demands of modern SkyFlying.
In 1999, using the latest technology and the knowledge United Parachute Technologies gained in building the Vector 3, we designed a container system aimed towards the growing trend of smaller canopies, the Micron- the most technically advanced harness and container system in the world. United Parachute Technologies did this by hiring a team of engineers never seen before in the arena of sport skydiving. These engineers, who happen to be world-class competitive skydivers, reviewed our systems designs and applied sound engineering practices to them. In doing this they were able to improve the function of the Vector 3 riser covers, pin protection, comfort and the operation of the three-ring release system. |
