Description
Overview
Go to the 6 m size when you want the whole class involved at once. A bigger canopy means more edge for more hands, and it fills a hall or field in a way the smaller parachutes cannot. The Vinex Parachute 6 metre uses the same heavy duty nylon cloth and tape-reinforced build as its 4 m sibling.
Expect a bigger lift too: at 2.2 kg it needs a proper group to get airborne, which is exactly the cooperative effort parachute games are about. It sits in our early years (ece) and classic outdoor games ranges.
Key benefits
- Wider canopy gives a full class a place on the edge.
- Heavy duty nylon cloth copes with weekly whole-school use.
- Tape reinforcement protects the centre hole from strain.
- Grab handles keep small hands on as the canopy rises.
- Packs down into its carry bag for the PE shed.
Who it's for
Best for primary schools running parachute sessions with a full class, holiday programmes and community events. If your group is small, or the space is an ECE mat area, the Vinex Parachute 4 metre is easier to manage. For a bright canopy in the smaller size, see the Vinex Parachute Fluro 4 metres.
Care, safety and set-up
Dry it fully after outdoor use and store it in the carry bag. It is imported stock, so if you are ordering for several schools, ask our team for a quote and about quantity pricing.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the 4 m and 6 m?
Same nylon cloth, reinforcement and handles; the 6 m simply has a larger canopy for bigger groups.

Yes, each parachute is supplied in a carry bag.
Is it heavy?
Shipping weight is 2.2 kg: easy for one adult to carry, but a group is needed to lift it in play.
