Remster 30 #1 August 10, 2004 Hey guys, Are both these canopies the same size if using the same measurement technique?Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 37 #2 August 10, 2004 I don't know but I doubt it. PD's technique is not the PIA standard technique and was decided upon by PD. I'm not sure about aerodyne's. But since one is PD's non standard, I doubt they would both use the same non standard technique. I doubt the difference is much or significant with that small of canopy.I'm old for my age.

dragon2 2 #3 August 10, 2004 Haven't laid my triathlon 135 on top of my spectre 135 yet, but the tri sure feels smaller! My hybrid tri 120 definately feels a whole size smaller then my lightning 126, too....... ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bivar 0 #4 August 10, 2004 Take a look here: http://www.paragear.com/canopyspecs/canopysizing.PDF It says that the Triathlon 120 actually is 127 sq.ft.---------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwoopMaster1 0 #6 August 11, 2004 Sorry Sas, I fink this particular Tri 135 feels huuuuge. That's why I wanted to swap it. I jumped the Tri 120 CReW competition which feels about right for a 120. Though the trim and setting are not to be compared to 'regular' canopies. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing!
