Cyco 0 #1 January 5, 2003 I have recently been given a coed 170 from a friend, I load it at 1.3 and have put about 10 jumps on it.I seemed to have gotten around the hard openings that they are known for with some help from my rigger but am still having some difficulties in zero wind landings. I just dont seem to get enough flare out of it resulting in some fast landings, I even busted my little finger 5 days ago from one such arrival. Any info about this canopy is appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites SkydiveMonkey 0 #2 January 5, 2003 Isn't the Coe-d a f1-11 canopy? how many jumps has it got? 1.3 is a lot for a f1-11 main.____________________ Say no to subliminal messages Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Cyco 0 #3 January 5, 2003 It is half and half. The top is ZP and the bottom is F1-11, as far as the number of jumps its hard to know as it has gone through a few hands by now (the other owners obviously got sick of some of the issues I am getting) but it seems to have only a few hundred or so?????

It sounds like you are all loading the canopy too heavy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
