I mostly jumped a Sabre2 170 and PD Pro 170 before getting a Spectre 150. I have it loaded at 1.37. Openings are always on-heading and have an average (good) opening speed (it doesn't whack you and it doesn't snivel for 1000 ft). Since it's a 7-cell, its decent rate is somewhat higher, but it has got some great flare so my landings have always been smooth. Although the canopy is not that responsive to front-riser input, it is pretty zippy when using the toggles. You can definitely drop some altitude quickly if you want to.
Overall: Great Canopy!
