For anyone asking "Which canopy is best?", the answer is fly them and see what you prefer.

Smaller DZ's tend to use one type over another so there generally isn't a lot of 'choices' even at small places that DO have a culture of borrowing equipment.



Sure as hell raised some eyebrows when my Precision Aerodynamics Fusion with its fancy HMA lines showed up at my old Cessna home DZ, I can tell ya :ph34r:

Then I started psycho packing it as per the recommendation and they REALLY got wound up :D


Yup...I was damn near treated like a leper when at my 1st home Dz I showed up with a Unit III. Everyone there had either a strato cloud or a parafoil.

Ya would have though I just landed from Mars when I started rocking a BOC pull-out on a Wonderhog with a blast handled reserve in the late 70's!

"What a stupid idea, if ya can't see it how can you pull it...they'll outlaw those BOC deployment handles any day now..." :ph34r:
