Waldschrat 0 #1 May 28, 2007 especially in 150ft/135ft^2. Which one know you? Is this a squarish/elliptical canopy? ....with a steeper or flater trim and a lot/bad flare? with thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites dragon2 2 #2 May 28, 2007 Huh? I jumped a few 7cells in that range: spectre 150, spectre 135, triathlon 150, triathlon 120, lightning 143, lightning 126, diablo 120. Spectre is semi-eliptical, excellent canopy. Triathlon is square, also an excellent canopy. Lightning doesn't flare very well, i a specialist canopy formation canopy. Diablo, well, high performance canopy. All of these are trimmed moderately to fairly steep, although not as steep as say a sabre. Why? ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Waldschrat 0 #3 May 28, 2007 I think, i change my main canopy; unsymmetrical closed endcells and diving is not the best in WS, especially after a quick pull in full flight. Ok, on a solo flight it can be funny, but in bigger wingsuit formations....

The spectre and tri will give you the best hassle-free opening ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites billvon 3,114 #5 May 29, 2007 > unsymmetrical closed endcells and diving is not the best in WS, >especially after a quick pull in full flight. I use a Pilot 150 for wingsuit flights. Amazingly consistent openings, and it doesn't much care about body position on opening.
