The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuuu 0 #4 June 29, 2007 what are you looking to get out of the canopy? Performance landings or reliable opennings? Spectre is a great canopy for both! I have flown a falcon for 150 wingsuit flights and have had great results when it comes to opennings and heading performance but it is lacking in the performance landing area! I would also have to recommend a spectre. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenediktDE 2 #5 June 30, 2007 I fly a Sabre2 170sqft loaded aprox 1.3 and I am very happy with it's openings in a Wingsuit wearing a camera helmet. Openings are fine and performance is enough for me. Enjoy! For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IslandGuy 0 #8 July 2, 2007 Instead of a new canopy - maybe check out the new design Tony Suits with the new break-away wings (for lack of knowing what they are officially called). As it has been described to me, this might address your concerns in dealing with spinners. Maybe Jeff or Tony can add something here. Just a thought. Hate to spend money on a canopy when it could be spent on wingsuits. Play like your life depends on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When line trim is not good openings become pretty unpredictable Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
