Engovatov 0 #1 April 17, 2002 Even though Precision's web site is not updated - Para-gear offers them for sale.It looks like it is close to the Safire - but how close?Are cells scaled in size in the way of Safire?Does it use the same measurement method? Is it available in any size?How would pack volume compare to similarly labeled Sabre2 and Safire?Anybody jumps it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Engovatov 0 #3 April 17, 2002 OK - the picture attached, and some discription.. Guess I will have to wait for non-marketing drivel description a bit.. ;) Why do not you offer rib by rib paint scheme (should match the cell) and separate slider color (should match the center cell)? Not that I care, but still.....The Fusion is Precision's entry range 9-cell elliptical main. This canopy has been developed for the skydiver who wants a little more kick and excitement than might be found in a 7-cell, but is still relatively docile when compared to our upper end 9-cell design, the Nitron.Wing loading is truly the key to the flight performance envelope of the Fusion. Depending on wing loading, the flight characteristics of the Fusion will grow from being docile and tame at the low end to exciting and zippy on the upper end, but the Fusion will always remember who is boss, and respond accordingly.The Fusion could serve a first time buyer very well for their first thousand jumps, and with the High Modulus Aramid fiber suspension lines there will be little worry about having to change out the lineset between seasons.This high-lift low-drag airfoil will always get you back from those questionable spots (or at least get you closer to the DZ than those other guys).For the more experienced skydivers flying at higher wing loadings, the Fusion can still kick up enough attitude to even satisfy those old-timers who used to fly the blade courses with their pocket rockets.
