ToTheTop 0 #1 November 20, 2009 Does anyone know where I can Find information about the Sabre. Years that canopy was manufactured? Were they all made with Zero P?

SEREJumper 1 #2 November 20, 2009 My years of useless surfing can finally help someone... yes, they were all ZP. Not sure of the first DOM, but seen them before with '94 production dates. http://www.performancedesigns.com/sabre.aspWe're not fucking flying airplanes are we, no we're flying a glorified kite with no power and it should be flown like one! - Stratostar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muff528 3 #4 November 20, 2009 QuoteThanks for the Help. Does anyone know the years that the Sabre was manufactured? I bought a used 170 in 1992 and I believe it was a couple of years old then. (I know it had been stuck in a tree for about 6 months at some point before I got it.) The copyright date in the owner's manual is 1991. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martini 0 #5 November 20, 2009 Contact PD, they are really helpful. If you get a timeline please post it, I'm sure several people would be interested. I think my oldest Sabre is a '94, my canopies aren't at hand or I'd look.Sometimes you eat the bear.............. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sangi 0 #8 November 20, 2009 A bit off topic, but why did PD discontinue the Vengeance canopy?"Dream as you'll live forever, live as you'll die today." James Dean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
likestojump 3 #9 November 20, 2009 QuoteA bit off topic, but why did PD discontinue the Vengeance canopy? what a certain PD rep told me is that "it was the most elliptical wing of their lineup, and just did not fit into the line of products they wanted to carry". makes sense to me. People usually either love 'em or hate 'em. Same goes for Jedi's :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
