Overview

The Estes 24" Rip Stop Parachute is an ideal upgrade for educators seeking a reliable recovery system for classroom rockets. Built from high-quality ripstop nylon, this parachute provides strength and longevity that standard plastic chutes simply can’t match.

Durable and Classroom-Ready

Ripstop nylon is engineered with a reinforced weave that stops small tears from spreading, ensuring the parachute stays in service longer. This durability makes it especially valuable for schools, clubs, and youth organizations conducting frequent launch activities.

Safe Recovery for Mid-Sized Rockets

At 24 inches in diameter, this parachute is perfectly sized for medium-weight rockets often built in classroom settings. It ensures soft landings that protect both the rocket and its payload, making it easier for students to relaunch the same model multiple times.

Resistant to Heat and Damage

With its ability to withstand ejection charge heat, the Rip Stop Parachute provides peace of mind during launches. Teachers and leaders can rely on consistent performance, knowing their recovery system is safe and dependable.

Reusable for Ongoing STEM Activities

Designed to be used again and again, the Estes 24" Rip Stop Parachute offers both cost savings and educational value. It helps maximize classroom time, allowing students to focus on learning key rocketry concepts rather than replacing worn-out components.

Rip stop cute

The only thing I would suggest is to attach the shroud lines the way the plastic cutes are attached with line in the middle attached across from its self instead of next to its self. Now I might be missing something here but it seems to attach to the swivel eye better and the shroud lines seem not to cross up.
