Anvilbrother 0 #1 February 2, 2011 In my search for a 280 canopy, what are the thoughts on the Icarus Equinox? There are no reviews, and the only thing equinox related in the search box is about the boogies. Im looking right now at the SOLO, Navigator, and Equinox. Is the lack of reviews a sign that its a POS, or just not marketed much? Postes r made from an iPad or iPhone.

mircan 0 #3 February 5, 2011 We have couple of Equinoxes as student canopies. I think in range 260-240-220, can`t remember exactly. Never jumped it myself, but overall thoughts (both students and instructors): good student canopy, nice openings, bit sluggish on the toggles, less aggressive than PD Navigator, a bit less flare than Nav (some seem to like it more because of it). Nothing funky or bad about it. It gets the job done. * somebody said that if you burry one toggle very deep quickly, it can go line-twist on you, but I`m not sure if it is b/c of the canopy or the pilot...dudeist skydiver #42 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
