The Interceptor

First introduced by the Precision Tension Free CRW team at the 1988 U.S. Nationals and at the 1988 World Meet at Vichy France, remains the choice of champions throughout the world. Available in four proportionally accurate sizes: 180, 200, 225, and 250 sq. ft. The Interceptor incorporates the same Compensatory Anhedral Surface Shaping technology used on Precision's Super Raven 7-Cell and Falcon 9-Cell parachutes. This exclusive design features results in superior glide and flare performance, with dramatically reduced pack volume. The Interceptor is a 7-Cell canopy constructed entirely of 1.1 oz/yd F-111 fabric. Double reinforced target panels are located at the center cell upper and lower surface and both end cells and the leading edges of all surfaces and ribs are reinforced with 1" Type III tape. The canopy is triple crossported and the ribs feature interlocking diagonal reinforcement tapes. Also standard are a fully retractable pilot chute system and continuous center "A" lines of 900 lb. red Dacron for easy identification and additional strength. The Interceptors were evaluated by many of the best canopy relative workers both in the United States and Europe. In reporting on the Interceptor, they all agreed that it represents a step forward in CRW design. Some of their comments: "Excellent airfoil pressurization"..."Canopy is very stable with exceptional oscillation dampening"..."Openings are consistent and comfortable in both subterminal and terminal deployments"..."Very responsive handling allows precise control"..."Small pack volume."
