... there were times I chose not to see what I should have seen... at least the looking back was 20/20. ------------------- ...if ignorance is bliss, I'm in Nirvana... you don't know what you don't know 'til you don't know it. GravityGone

Riser reach is fine and the harness was measured for me. Thanks for the comments. ------------------- ...if ignorance is bliss, I'm in Nirvana... you don't know what you don't know 'til you don't know it. GravityGone

I think I'll have someone with experience on another canopy jump it next time out to see if is me or my perception or the canopy. (ps. no tail deflection that I could see). Thanks again for the comments.

Thanks to all for the comments. My reference is a Sabre at about 1.1. Single riser pressure is less but, still seems signficant. Double risers, even after full brakes to unload the canopy, is a pullup exercise. Steering lines do have slack in full glide (about 3 inches to tension).

Excellent dropzone. Friendly, courteous with grass runway expanding landing areas. Easy commute from Minneapolis.

Does anyone have experience with a Sabre 2 loaded at about 1:3 - 1:4 compared to another canopy at the same loading? I have to full brake then hang with full weight on front risers to get any significant action. I don't know if this is representative of the canopy in general or just mine. ------------------- ...if ignorance is bliss, I'm in Nirvana... you don't know what you don't know 'til you don't know it.
