Mark Quayle makes really good chutes. They have a stainless steel entrance and have a tramp material sock. I am slightly biased though as he is my crews dad.

They are both lighter and stronger than the hobie chutes.

I have used one at international level for 3 years now and I have never had any damage to it.

Let me know if you want some more info.
