Tri-Lite

The Tri-Lite is a fast deflation system capable of two modes of venting, with a special arrangement of shroud centralizing lines and more efficient in-flight venting.

  • A red-white line for in-flight venting, which closes automatically.
  • A red line gathers the vent panel into the center for fast deflation.
  • A white line for sealing the vent, resetting the fast deflation mode.

Biggest Envelopes

Recommended for large envelopes starting from 10,500m³ (370).

Fast Deflation

For efficient and fast deflation after landing.

Easy In-Flight Venting

A special system makes in-flight venting effortless even on large envelopes.

Rotation Vents

RV web

Rotation vents enable the balloon to be turned so that it is correctly orientated for landing. When flying a partitioned basket or one with a door, rotation vents are mandatory.

  • A black line to turn left
  • A green line to turn right

Included in Price

Comes standard in all envelopes over 3,700m³ (130).
