KJ2 0 #1 November 16, 2004 Hi, Am in the market for a new canopy, Intermediate 170 size. PV seem to be offering a competitive price for their Cayenne canopy. I would welcome any informed comment on this canopy if possible as I have not seen it around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #2 November 17, 2004 I've flown one, and I'd consider it to be junk at best. Very unresponsive for me, and opens like a homesick anvil.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Canuck 0 #3 November 17, 2004 Interesting that DiabloPilot hated it. We have a 210 at our DZ that we use as transition gear. I've put some jumps on it and thought it was a pretty decent canopy. We just got a 170 too, but I haven't jumped it yet. Their HP canopy, the Demon, I also thought opened and flew very nicely. Could be a quality control thing. As is the case with many manufacturers, not all canopies that they make fly the same. I can tell you that they have provided our DZ with unbelievable customer service.

roq 0 #4 November 17, 2004 The Cayenne is excellent intermediate canopy, has good flare, permissive oppenings, very good construction quality and price. Roq Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
