Peej 0 #3 February 28, 2005 I put a few jumps on a Sabre 2 150 loaded about the same. It's a fantastic canopy and i must say i preferred it to a Pilot of equal size. However what i really liked in that size was the Safire 2 149 i flew and the Fusion from Precision. Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I jump a Sabre2 150 as well, it's loaded higher than that (close to 1.6) and it is an incredibly fun canopy to fly. It's one canopy that has it all (I think)... Have fun and be safe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #6 February 28, 2005 Doesn't take a lot of loading to get a powerful flare. I only load my 135 at 1.05 or so and it has TONS of flare power. My first ZP canopy jump was a sabre2 150. Popped right back up when I flared (and had plenty of flare left to finish for a soft landing)... something I couldn't dream of doing on my old PD150.

GravityGirl 0 #11 March 1, 2005 You know! That just blows! Your first pond swoop and you have stills! WTF? Granted, I've only touched water a handfull of times, but it was back before there were 1 million digital cameras at the dz! No proof. Guess it never happened. By the way VDS, you look phat in that picture! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonbon.. next time you jump, I'll be there for you with a camera... you go rip a phat swoop, and I'll make sure there's more evidence than you'll ever need.. About looking phat.. that's only cause my face is not really visible in that picture.. cause if you saw that.. all you would see is FEAR.. ha ha.. I only had one thought running through my mind "... .are we there yet???" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
