I was renting student gear while waiting on my 135 Sabre 2........I was jumping a Sabre 150.........which was pretty easy for me to land ......I load my Sabre 2 at .9 . I was probly loading the sabre 150 @ around........ .8 or .7. I can tell you that I do see a difference in the opening ...it is smooth......As far as landing...there is alot of glide(the turns are more responsive)......I can not really compare my 135 to the 150 because most of the differences for me are due to my higher wing loading.......I do move through the air faster and I come down at a little faster descent rate... So the opening is the thing I REALLY noticed the most that set the Sabre and the Sabre 2 apart....but Im sure this is different for every one......Overall I LOVE IT........

I need to work on everything.......My basic safety skills are fine ( my position @ pull time and Idid a couple of 360's and hey were fine.....I need to work on what to do if some one gets low and tracking. I will work on that until I get it then move on.So I will find you next time I see you at Spaceland and see if you want to catch a load with me...........Thanks..

I jumped my Sabre 2 135 for the first time.........I was jumping a 150 Sabre before.I can tell a big difference in the opening..they are nice and smooth.I would recommend this canopy for a jumper that likes alot of glide in their on final approach and with at least 60 to 70 jumps if their comming from a larger size canopy. It is a wonderful canopy.

I just picked up my complete rig. As soon as I got home I turned on the cypress ( to make sure it worked) I know you turn it off the same way you turn it on. But every time I try to turn it off the light will not come on....or it comes on...... I start with the four presses and still......I can not get it off....I had no trouble getting it on it is still on 0. " ah geez" "The two of you's dummy up" ! Archie Bunker

Confidence is the key word in skydiving..............You are in control......always remember you have choices and as long as your alive youcan decide the best possible to save your life if it comes down to that......You have to love skydiving and appreciate it fot wht is is purely......................Then make the the decision....do not continue skydiving until you accept that you reallly wnt to do this....there is a risk..but I believe it is also all in your mind and how much confidence you have that deterimines how good you will be........either make a commitment and jump or stop jumping until you make a desion..that is what I did...now I have decided I love this sport.....I can not imagine living without jumping.I will contine to jump because I believe I can be safe.......I will always put safety first.......I never had a fear at the door....Im always cool in freefal and the canopy ride is wonderful...I just love it...

Hey..........I do not even know if my Sabre is in................I want to pay the rest of my balance and get Chris to pack it during the week and then go jump it the same day( I have to pay for a few refresher jumps too)..I will most likely start jumping again Wed ( depending on weather only)......Im coming Sunday to pay off my balance and hopefully see a 120 way!...
