Firebolt Canopies

[woppyvac 0]

Prior to ordering one..


I'm asking if anyone owns one with a good amount of jumps on theirs and how it is holding up.

Just trying to assess if they are durably built and if I can expect a long life out of one with good care.

I have several hundred jumps on several sizes of the Firebolt canopy. I have nothing negative to say about it or it's durability. It's a very good, all around canopy when loaded at 1/1 or below. Loaded higher, it becomes a bit more sporty but not in a bad way. It's a fun canopy to fly.

I own a firebolt 328. I consider it to be an outstanding canopy. Openings are great and its fun to fly.

I only have 3 jumps on mine and it was great.

Much appreciated.

hybrid canopy makes so much sense. hybrid means easy to pack even brand new, lower pack volume. I would go for it.

I work for the manufacturer and we received a canopy on it's second line set in for it's third so it had around 1500-2000 jumps, as expected the ZP fabric was not holding air like new but still had some life left in it. I did a test jump on it and at around 2-1 it flew great and still had a lot of flair left in it.

I have a Firebolt 164, it is the best all around main canopy I’ve jumped since the 7 cell CruiseLite from ParaFlite.

Easy openings and smooth landings. I can go for the disk in the pea gravel target or just land safe on a bad spot.

And you can down size the Firebolt until you’re dangerous.
