My friend has a Zp-EXE 170, and it was spanking him quite a lot when new. He used to psycho pack it to try and calm it down. Now it's broken in a bit, he just standard pro-packs it. Perhaps this canopy just bites when it's new? Ook Ook Ook !! - The Librarian

That maybe true, especially with the newer ZP Mantas, but the ones I flew on student status were shagged out and needed a "solid" 1 stage to get a nice landing. Ook Ook Ook !! - The Librarian

This is where you're too rigid in freefall, and you "rock" backwards and forwards - try dropping a piece of paper and see what happens. Ook Ook Ook !! - The Librarian

On smaller canopies with more performance, you need a "2 stage" flare. The first part is pulling the toggles down to get the canopy to "plane out" ie. eliminate the vertical descent. Then, the 2nd part of the flare is to eliminate the horizontal speed. Canopys like Mantas etc are so large they need a 1 stage flare ie. all the way down at once. Have a look at the experienced jumpers at your DZ and watch them landing (and talk to them as well). What size canopy are you flying, and at what wingloading? Ook Ook Ook !! - The Librarian
