  1. Check the Snekor, is made by Loic and Zun and it has a cool toogles system...(You have access to the toggles right after the pull) http://shop.flyyourbody.com/en/online-shop/boutique-materiel.html?no_cache=1&tx_metasnoopy_pi1%5BsnoopyURL%5D=http%253A%252F%252Fshop.flyyourbody.com%252Fcatalog%252Fproduct_info.php%253FcPath%253D3_28%2526products_id%253D106&cHash=6cf9ff9f34
  2. I know I can get one right now if I want and I know what companies says about his own canopies, but when a company don't release a canopy, we may think the canopy isn't 100% ready for sell so we may think that the canopy could have service bulletins, no used market to resell it and stuff like that in the future.... I don't know why the Company isn't release it yet...
  3. Do you know when Icarus is going to release it? (officially) edit:spell
  4. I don't know why Airtec don't make a Swoop device, which detects the opening and shut it off (stop monitoring and goes to stand-by, ), something like Argus is doing. I think it's more reasonable to make a device which you could put it on a swoop mode, which can automatically detect the opening and stop monitoring, than raise the speed for make it fire, like the cypress speed... edit:spell (English is no my language)
  5. I know, I know.....I told him a thousand times, but he jumps with the cypress on always, so if he use my Viso to take the readings, won't make any difference, he is going to jump with cypress on as every weekend....
  6. I think a viso canopy speed reading isn't the same that a cypress reading... I have a friend of my DZ who has VX 78 with cypress and he is doing a 450... I think he reachs more than 78mph on the viso...We will try it this weekend... I'll let you know what are the viso readings...
  7. Anyone has reach more than 78 mph (viso reading) with the cypress on???
  8. Nice!! please let us know how do you think about it... show us a video if it's possible (opening and turn)
  9. I'm doing a 270 at 550-500 ft (optima guided) with my XF2 (@1.87), depending the DZ. In my homedropzone (1300 ft MSL) I do it at 530 ft and I'm not doing a quick turn... it's a 4 sec turn edit: spell
  10. thanks for the answers... whit "freefly friendly", I mean if I can use it for the every day jumping (terminal openings) and not just for swoop (subterminal openings). How do you evaluate the canopy compare it with the crossfire....
  11. I didn't know that in English the concept is density-altitude. When the temperature decrease the air density will increase....so when I red: “hot air = higher density altitude”, I was thinking in air relative density.... Thanks for explain the altitude density term..... I didn't know it Edit: Spell
  12. What???? Altitudes???? What do you mean with higher density altitudes??? edit: spell
  13. Want to know: how much bigger will it pack than my crossfire2? Prices? Wing loads? Main differences with the crossfire2 (openings, trim, shape design, line set, freefly friendly?, front and rear risers feel...)
  14. Try a safire 1 at 1.5-1.7 loadings. The safire 1 has longest recovery than the safire 2, sabre 2 and pilot.
  15. Te felicito brother!!! Ojala luego pueda estar swoopeando por ahi.... De que esta hecho el fondo? de cemento? como lo van hacer para que no se pudra el agua, tiene filtro o algo que haga mover el agua???
  16. I want a conopy that I can do back to back, pack by packers and that I can do a lot of fast pack jobs....that's why I don't like the Velo.
  17. I live in Chile. Big xbraced canopies are difficult to find but here is impossible....
  18. "Sweet" on heading opening are a MUST, that's why I don't want a Velo or a VX..........
  19. I'm flying a crossfire 139 (@1.87) and I'm getting between 200 to 260 ft with a 270º I want to go to a X-braced canopy, but I'm confused with my options, what do you recommend me... 1) Xaos 27 118 @2.20 2) Xaos 21 124 @2.09 3) JVX 117 @2.22 I really like the Xaos 21, I saw some openings videos and it opens great, but It's a 7 cell and I like 9 cell canopies. I really want a JVX, but I think the JVX is a step above the xaos21 and 27, so xaos is a good "transition" canopy. About Xaos 27 I heard it' s a great canopy but it's openings are not so good always.... Please coments and recomendations about it.....
