Envelopes

Envelope is the fabric part of a balloon system, made of special longlife balloon fabric Triumph.

E types - envelopes have 12 horizontally cut gores. This type is designed as saving in production, what implies very low weight and the best price on the market.

N types - The almost flat surface of this envelope type is ideal for the carrying complicated graphics and artwork. N types have vertically cut panels. These envelopes have either 24 or 32 vertical gores.

Z types - Envelopes of this type are cheaper than N types. Z types have horizontaly cut panels and 24 vertical gores. The decision on which one type (N or Z) is more suitable will depend on how a particular artwork fits onto the balloon.

Smart Vent^® and Lite Vent^® - the very finest rapid deflation systems!

These systems retain all the advantages of a traditional parachute vent and at the same time allow rapid deflation. These two systems are similar but Lite Vent incorporates a very light in-flight venting system. With the basket resting on the ground either these systems can be deployed and reset with ease. See and you will believe!

This is the end of baskets being dragged over the landscape!

Fast to open
Smart Vent and Lite Vent can be fully opened in less than three seconds - the balloon empties much faster than it would with a traditional parachute vent.

Preparing for flight
It is very easy. During inflation, the velcro tabs are fixed to the crown around the edge of Smart Vent as they are with a conventional parachute vent.

In flight venting
Smart Vent and Lite Vent being used as a parachute vent for in-flight venting. Another new feature of both is the "Lip Seal" - the pocket at the edge of the vent panel, which ensures a perfect seal to the whole system.

Easy to operate
The force required to activate the Smart Vent or Lite Vent red line is about the same as a parachute vent. These vents are easy to use and, once opened, will stay open until the pilot pulls the white line to reseat the vent. A particularly useful feature during a fast landing.

The system is reversible
The most remarkable feature of Smart Vent and Lite Vent, when compared with other deflating systems, is that they are easily reversibility. The red line opens the vent and the white line will close it in seconds. This feature is particularly useful for intermediate landings. Thus the pilot is able to land gently, allow the basket to stand and not to be dragged, change passengers or crew, and fly away again.
