Epicene Pro 150

The Squirrel Epicene Pro 150 is a 7-cell, ultra-low-bulk skydiving canopy specifically engineered for reliable on-heading openings during wingsuit skydiving.

Its 150-square-foot design uses high-quality lightweight materials, allowing it to pack into a volume significantly smaller than standard 9-cell ZP parachutes of the same size.

Key Specifications
Size: 150 square feet.

Cell Count: 7 cells.

Materials: Constructed with Porcher Sport PN9, a low-bulk 0-3cfm fabric that is highly formable and easy to pack.

Pack Volume: Packs approximately 15-30% smaller than a ZP canopy; a 150sqft Epicene Pro has a similar pack volume to a standard 120sqft 9-cell ZP design.

Weight: According to technical data from SkyGear Hub, the 150 model weighs approximately 5.20 lbs.
Line Type: Delivered with 725lb Spectra lines.

Performance Characteristics
Opening Behavior: Renowned for consistent, soft, and on-heading deployments, which are critical when flying modern high-performance wingsuits.

Flight and Flare: The “Pro” version features improved glide and flare performance compared to the original Epicene series, though it remains a docile canopy compared to aggressive swoop designs.

Riser Pressure: Modern versions like the Epicene Pro 2 feature reduced front riser pressure for easier landing turns.

Usage Recommendations
Wing Loading: Squirrel recommends a wing loading of approximately 1.2:1 for experienced skydivers to fully experience the canopy’s best characteristics.

Sizing: Because it packs so small, users often choose a size larger than their standard “slick” jump canopy to improve landing safety and reliability.

Non-Wingsuit Use: While specialized for wingsuiting, testers note it performs well for standard “slick” jumps as well.

Purchasing Options
The Epicene Pro has been succeeded by the Squirrel Epicene Pro 2, which is available through various retailers
