TALONSKY 0 #28 December 2, 2002 Out of curiosity, where were your Safire’s made. I was talking to the factory service center for relines and they stated ones made by Precision had some problems where the ones made in Spain did not. To find out where it was made look on the warning label in the lower left-hand corner. If it was made in Spain it will have a round parachute symbol similar to the USPA symbol. The reason I ask is my Safire that I jumped for 350 jumps had a ton of flare. I never had any problems with not enough flare. Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skygod7777 0 #31 December 3, 2002 there is a guy in texas that does some mod (i think he adds a brake line) that improves the flare a lot. icarus has tested it, and they say it's fine. i just can't remember what his name is. later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
