  1. Kirilis is very correct. The diablo comes in on fire. very steep. Once you get above 1.4 the sweetspot becomes very thin on landing so mistakes will cost you. If you don't have the 4.0 mod on the brakes I would suggest you get it. I have jumpes allot of canopies. The Diablo is THE fastest turning canopy I have ever seen. It is very possible to get in over your head with the Diablo if you haven't transitioned properly. Be carefull.. Rhino Blue Skies .....

  6. As a newbie I get people telling me all the time how I need to downgrade to a smaller canopy when I don't really have a desire to. Don't EVER ever ever ever do anything you aren't ready for.. Good job.. Rhino Blue Skies .....

  16. Better yet let the jumpers pack their own 2nd chance low pro reserves! Now we are living on the edge!! I can hear it now.. DUUUUDE!! I got a save todaaaay!! Wiiiicked!! Forgot the main, forgot the first reserve, went straight for my 40 sqft round.. Went right into the jello swoop pond!! It was RAAAADICAL!!! BEER!! LMFAO Rhino Blue Skies .....
  17. First of all the net is an EXCELLENT idea!! Or maybe make the swoop pond into jello!! 2 reserves? It could be done. Possibly a small round that goes under your regular reserve? OR a flat, low profile reserve that goes on your belly? After you cut the other 2 canopies away with your hookknife you can deploy the low pro reserve? While in a spin, at 2 grand heading for the ground quickly while at the same time experiencing ground rush? If you miss the net? You might skip off of the swoop pond made of jello? Then hit the net? Who knows? Maybe a 2nd reserve would be possible for experienced jumpers. Did an intentional cutaway on Dereks rig with the belly mount.. To cut that main away all you had to do was pull a couple of tabs on the risers. That was easy enough.. No extra handles. But it adds more risks of course.. Rhino Blue Skies .....
