    there are ppes who do.. the stilletto is old technology, that is it. but it was and still is a canopy that can be swoop VERY well.. and like i said before, there is nothing wrong with the way a stilletto swoops, it is the transition to a more modern canopy that can get you...

    Maybe a stupid question but what is the definition of "dirt-water-dirt"? Does that require the first point of contact to occur before the water? Do you have to drag your toe the entire length of the pond? yes, drag dirt, then water, then dirt.

    not having a go at you. just understand that there is alot of peeps out there that start talkin like they know what is going on, and get ahead of themself and get SEVERLY hurt. take your time with alot of this stuff, and be carefull what kind of advice you give out."pot meet kettle"... we are all still learning here, but with your expeiance level, you have ALOT to learn.... just be carefull, and im not saying you have a big ego, you really havent acted like you do, so please forgive me for that. everyone has one though, so just relize what you DONT know instead of focusing on what you do.

    well why dont you come out here to the U.S. we could hit up big sky and drop in off some cliffs. after snowboarding, we can evaluate your canopy skills. dude, i just dont want you to get hurt because your ego got in the way. and yes we ALL have ego's, just need to learn how to check it....

    ya, as soon as i hit the gates i was like FUCK, i got to turn QUICK!.... and it was over... there is so much about that swoop that could have been better. so a sub 2 sec run is possible.

    420x220 is bigger.. but anyways.... swooping at 5000 ft is going to be crazy! then again... in the summer, swooping at the farm with 3500 ft density altitude is nutz too! 420x220. 100% awesome 100% cool, and by 100% cool, i mean "totally sweet!"

    the stilletto is one hell of a swooping canopy. this "short recovery" and crap like that mean nothing to the way that canopy swoops. the big problem i have seen, myself and others, is once you dial it in and you can swoop the hell out of it, then you want to progress to somjthing more modern for swooping. that is where the problem lies. somone who has the experiance to understand recovery arc's and to also fear puonding the ground should be ok. but the transition from a stilletto to a more moder swooping canopy can be dangerous unless you really pay attention to what your doing. and that when you get comfortable, you dont revert back to that old sight picture the stilletto gave you, and turn to low to the ground.. a stilletto is a great swooping canopy, the transition to somthing with a longer recovery arc is where the problem lies.... so once you master this canopy, just be carefull if you decide to go onto something like a crossfire or katana.or about 10 other canopies on the market..
