TitaniumLegs 8 #2 January 19, 2004 Sabre is older. Sabre2 is newer. The less obvious simple answer is Sabre2 flies like a Sabre, only more so, but opens like a Spectre (i.e. far less likely to slam you). Or you could just go to the PD web site...

wingnut 0 #3 January 19, 2004 in a nut shell.... sabre=square sabre2= not square, but not highly eliptical..... i've jumped both and find them to be okay canopies....... depends on what your looking for and what price youare willing to pay..... you'll hear about hard openings on the sabre but well i had one and jumped it for about 100 jumps and it ever treated me badly.... ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
