falcon593 0 #1 April 21, 2010 Does anyone know the sq footage of a superraven 3, I know they call it 249, but is it closer to 235? I have one that was packed as a reserve, thinking of hooking it up for main duty as I don't really want to put anymore wear on my base tarp, which I have skydived{yes, in a j5 with res.} if i got desperate enough.

PD uses a different method. Precision uses it in general last I knew. Individual canopies will vary some. Does it matter? It jumps like it jumps. Use Precision's size, don't load it more than 0.9 (the manual's recommended limit), and make sure you remember it may flair differently than what you've jumped before if you haven't jumped one.I'm old for my age.
