The PD Spectre is a lightly-tapered 7-cell main canopy that has remained one of Performance Designs' most popular designs since 1997. Known for its predictability and smooth handling, the Spectre delivers soft, on-heading openings with a surprisingly flat glide—making it the trusted choice for skydivers across all experience levels.
What Makes the Spectre Stand Out
The Spectre's reputation is built on reliability. Its soft openings feature long snivel for comfortable, predictable deployments, while a short recovery arc means quick stabilization after opening. The flat glide gives you excellent distance and control, and the smooth, progressive toggle response ensures precise maneuverability—even at higher wing loadings. Users consistently praise its powerful flare, making landings smooth and controlled.
"My Spectre 190 flies like a champ! Has a very powerful flare when called for, and turns on a dime in the air!" – Robert Ratcliffe
