Great for HIIT. in Exercise & Fitness

I've wanted one of these for a long time and finally decided to pull the trigger. I have used it several times so far and the durability is excellent. Very tiring when used with Sprint. I must have had sore legs and abs the day after an intense workout. Easy to store in the supplied bag and easy to install. Great product and great price.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Uncertain

Suggested minimum resistance.

After using this item several times, I sincerely believe that it is made for young or lighter people. I'm about 30 years old, my weight is 185 and I don't feel any resistance using this product. It says 15-30 pounds of resistance, but I don't think you feel anything, especially in regards to the speed-inducing resistance. The quality of the product seems good in terms of durability. It doesn't appear to be a cheap construction. However, the overall score should be lower than the reviews…

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Requires power socket

SKLZ parachutes are not durable.

SKLZ parachutes purchased in May 2019 for agility/conditioning camps. Very disappointed with the durability of the product. The bottom mesh is coming loose from the seams and the parachute has holes in the parachute so I can no longer use it. I don't know what happened to the quality of these parachutes but they don't last long. They work fine by default. If anyone has other parachutes for sale that stand the test of time please let me know. I don't want to buy parachutes every season. SKLZ may

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • No

This training parachute is ideal for fast sprinters. This allows you to generate more power with every step to overcome resistance. The only problem I have with this parachute is the waist belt. For real? You guys couldn't provide a real shoulder strap attachment. This is rather disappointing as shoulder straps are better for speed training. A lap belt will get the job done, but it won't allow you to get the most out of your parachute in your sprint form. I bought a separate attachment for the…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

My defenders and fielders needed more speed

Both my soccer sons love the parachute. It's not easy to get them into sports at their age, but they love the parachute. Last season my youngest son was promoted to the offline defense position on his 7th grade team. For many years he was too strong in youth football to handle the ball, so he waited a long time to do so. He wants to make sure he keeps the defender's job from now on. He was quick for a lineman, but we knew he needed to get into running back form to stay cornerback lest he tire…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
