tsrbsbd 0 #1 December 9, 2004 I would like anyone's experienced opinions on the Troll MDV vs. FOX Vtec vs. Rock Dragon(vented). I have a FOX 265 Vtec w/covers with around 70 jumps and I am looking to upsize to the 285ish range. According to the Atair website a Troll 265 flies/packs up like a 290??? It's in the way they measure it?? Any thoughts on these canopies would be great, thanks. Travis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASE813 0 #2 December 9, 2004 due to the measurement system used - a Troll 265 is more like a 280, * 205 ft.2 = PIA spec 219 * 225 ft.2 = PIA spec 240 * 245 ft.2 = PIA spec 260 * 265 ft.2 = PIA spec 282 * 290 ft.2 = PIA spec 309 I jump a Troll MDV 265 and found it great in the UK environment (sub300) (I only ever jumped a dagger before this though (in the same environment), so my opinion maybe warped!)

tsrbsbd 0 #4 December 9, 2004 Do you have any slider up experience with it? Would I be correct in assuming that it also packs around the same size as a 280? Thanks for the input. Travis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nicknitro71 0 #5 December 9, 2004 If you're light the Bruiselight is a good BASE canopy if you add few crossports A buddy of mine this year had a premature brake release at BD and landed, stood it up on rears right on the LZ with a Bruiselight Memento Audere Semper 903 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
