czechbase 0 #1 September 29, 2003 Has anyone tried the Dagger from Vertigo with vents? I curious as to how it opens and flies as compared to a Troll MDV or Fox Vtec. Thanks! Matthew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
base689 0 #2 September 29, 2003 > Has anyone tried the Dagger from Vertigo with vents? ?!?!?!?!?!?!? ?!?!?!?!?!?!? Has Dagger got vents as option?!?!?!?!?!?!? ?!?!?!?!?!?!? First, I think vents are NOT an option on Dagger's. Second, I think that bluntly applying vents: 1) in the Fox/Flik position and shape 2) in the Black Jack position and shape 3) in the Troll position and shape on a Dagger is NOT a good idea because: 1) Dagger is NOT tested for flight with vents (at least officially: we do not have any evidence that Vertigo ever made any test with vents/valves on their Dagger); 2) if you do so, you cannot imagine how Dagger is going to open/fly/land/whatever... The only BASE parachutes that have got valves (presently, there is not any more any BASE manufacturer that applies "only-vents" to their canopies) as standard or as an option are: Fox/Flik from BR, Black Jack from CR and Troll from Atair. Full stop. Just my 0.02€.Stay safe out there Blue Skies and Soft Walls BASE #689 - base_689AT_NO_123_SPAMyahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
