  1. I haven't flown an Omega, but I have flown a Safire (another Icarus product, similar to an Omega in that it's lightly eliptical, but a nine cell design vice a seven cell one), the Spectre, and the Sabre, and the Triathlon. After flying all of them, for my initial canopy, I bought the Triathlon. Very forgiving, opens well (as long as you do a half decent pack job), and rock solid in all phases of flight, even in turbulence. No, it won't win you any swooping contests, but it lands just fine and can be fairly accurate - that is, you can sink it in if you need to. I put about 300 jumps on my Tri before upgrading to a Stiletto, but still hang onto the Tri for demos and such. It's such a great canopy, I can't seem to let go of it. Bobby Bobby
