The Perigee Pro represents a new direction in single parachute container systems. It's genesis was in response to the realization that contemporary fixed object jumping was often exceeding the parameters that the Velcro-closed BASE rig was designed to operate within.

In 1991 Consolidated Rigging (containers are now manufactuered by Asylum Designs) experimented with the idea of a 2-pin closed single parachute system. In 1997 they revisited the concept as it became apparent that certain BASE jumps required a more securely closed rig.

This is not to say that a properly maintained and packed Velcro closed rig cannot be used at terminal or for aerobatics, simply that the potential for premature openings is higher.

The Perigee Pro addresses these concerns by offering a secure dual-pin closure. The system is designed to operate equally well at high or low speeds and can be safely used from any jumpable object. However, by default, any pin-closed rig is more complex than a Velcro-closed rig. This additional complexity requires the user to have a greater understanding of his equipment and to pay more attention to detail.

Accept No Substitute.

The Perigee II was the first "modern" Velcro-closed BASE rig. Consolidated Rigging addressed the needs of the contemporary Fixed Object Jumper by providing a more securely closed and dimensionally refined Velcro container with the features that jumpers asked for.

The pin-closed Perigee Pro is great for jumping at terminal or doing extreme aerials but what if most of your jumps are under 1000' and you only occasionally travel to tall objects? The perfect solution is the Perigee II. It offers increased Velcro security, a refined fit and versatility available nowhere else.

The Perigee II is a state-of-the-art Velcro container. It is equally at home doing one second delays or tracking at terminal velocity. If most of your jumps are made without a slider or you prefer the simplicity and safety of a Velcro closure, the Perigee II is ideal.

The perigee has come to represent state of the art in single parachute harness and container design.

It does what it must do: deploy a parachute as reliably and consistently as possible; and then goes beyond with exceptional comfort and durability, unsurpassed aesthetics and a reputation for the highest quality available.
