A parachute canopy maker in Penrose, Auckland. JYRO, previously known as Icarus Canopies, makes wings for skydivers at every stage, from a first canopy to the smaller, faster wings used for competition swooping. Its website says there is a wing for every level of experience.
A canopy is chosen by size and design to suit each jumper's weight, experience and style of flying. A maker that covers the full range from a first jump to competition has to match each wing to the person who will fly it. The business is based at 17 Maurice Rd in Penrose.
