well having recently had a near death experience I can say i would never jump anything that has a reserve pin on the outer side of the container. I had a mid air collision with a friend who had a prem reseve opening. I passed through it and had his lines wrapped around the container and parted as i cleared. The evidence on the ground was that my container had friction burns all over it from his suspension lines and had some tearing. Anyway I firmly belive that a less well proteted reserve pin would have been torn off and left me in a very bad situation as during the collision my main had deployed. pop top saves my life despite needing a new container. both of us walked away from this one and both learned some valuable lessons. ts sf is the best rig on the market- bar none, despite what the gossip is.

since this is my first owned rig I don't have much to compare it to. However every one thats packed it say's it's a pain to pack. I agree. Compared to a similar size and age sabre its awfull to pack. I have had about 25% off heading openings since using it but it always opens, sometimes too fast. On the good side, i can agree with the sales pitch, it's a great way to discover performance canopies. Even after a couple of uses i was maxing out the brake lines and doing 360's and never felt unsecure.
