Is that dancing some Samba on opening? I call one of mine as blue bitch.

Try a Cobalt or Cobalt Competition.

I deploy from full flight with wing suit, but i don;t have hard opening. I wonder why. My guess is the slider placement.

Very well done! Hats off!

You can have slink caps or bumpers with slinks nowadays.

What you seen is the combination os wollmary pack and reverse S-folding. If you talking about folding the tail over the back of the canopy instead of folding under the nose that is called wollmary pack. Well, packing is something like a religion. you do not have to believe in mine, although got one canopy 400 packed this way without a line-over or significant wear.

This is an easy way to do it:Revese S-fold.

Than you might understand why most ppl say no-no.

Well, and who could you record it? You are not suppose to have a camera with 60 jumps.

It just a another canopy. Its a 7 cell, square canopy from F111 material. If you wanna try one rent a gear like that. Jumping your reserve not in emergency? You are a dead man walking....

I got 146 flight on Phantom. I have Triathlon 160 on my WS gear, my WL is about 1.45. I pull between 800-1100m. It depends on the location, position relative to the landing area, clouds etc. I prefer to be ready for flying over 600m. I don't use altimeter in flight just my eyes and audible. I also don't unzip my leg wing, because I can run in my Phantom and my Triathlon does not really swoop.

Notice its called reserved, because of the sequence.

I used a 32" (F111?)kill-line PC with short bridle for 70 flights. No hesitations at all. I use Cazer 24" ZP kill-line PC from my other gear. I got no hesitation. I have a 26" Birdman kill-line PC with long bridle on my WS gear, its perfect. I had one single jump with a 27" Javelin kill-line PC from subterminal, I got lots of hesitation and got it replaced right away. I'd check the length of the kill-line if its from Spectra, it could shrink and/or try another PC.

Greed and sid rocks!

You should learn to pack more carefully. Well, you should know that from your own experience. I might know other cause than just a packing fault.

Take it slow. Its not a pissing contest, who can piss further or you have bigger.....wings. Depending you body type take a small or medium suite and learn how to fly. Trust me! There is 1000 ways to fly any suite. I had more than 150 flights, but i still don't know all. I have friend bought the big one at first, they have to fly folded in most of formation. I can fly with wings spread. I'm not the strongest but I have problems having more than 5-6 flight from 4000m a day with a Phantom. I was told that its close to impossible to fly a Vampire 3+ minute maxed out. If you are on the light side, get an Acro and learn to fly, if not get a Phantom(2) or similar.

Eh, you are terrible!!! If you can not describe in 2 sentences you should get your book and read it again. Using breaks: you increase the angle of attack of the wings, that side flies slower, other side flies faster, you got a turning momentum. You are not a fixed wing aircraft, preassure is droppping in the breaked side. What is happening if you pull rears? You are about to re-trim your canopy for higher angle of attack, more resistance, slowing down. That is the reason using it for swoop. You force the canopy slow down, recover, meanwhile you swing back under the wing. You can find lots of reading front riser vs. toggle swoop. See there, even toggle monkey can have speed.... Using rears to turn on final is even have a risk of high speed stall. If you can do than do harness turns, they are the most effective. If you want to you can land with rears or do a rears to toggles transfer. Its a leap of faith. I don't really think that rear riser turn is the right tool for turing to final or turning next to the ground. You'd rather read that book again. I hope you could get the true message of it.

Fear is the dark side, you should know it better.

Don't you think that you put much much efforts to scare others?

Nice try! So try again! Why is your propeller turning?

Glide ratio is a scalar number. How can it be steep or what?

Well, there's enough WL nazi here.... Than try to explain why is your canopy turning. Than try to explain what is the gain compared with using breaks.

I bought a Triathlon 160 for WS. It does not swoop long and if its a little wind I can just step down, so no need for unzipping legs and its opening clean, nice and fast, so I can deploy

I have a Triathlon 160 in a Vector2 V1-2. It had Spectra, not it has Dacron and it still fits. Size difference with those lines were not significant.

LOL I might fly IFR some day. I Follow Road to get home.
