Definatley shuts down quick. Be in full flight. Brakes look long… it’s just designed that way. Trust me. Maybe pick up the slack sure. I pulled in an inch or two nothing crazy then I was flaring . The power of the flare on the bottom end is so sick ! Super easy to fly in brakes too and let others land before you. Haven’t touched my fronts yet … about to! Hehe .
overall openings are on heading and quick but not snappy like the Sabre. Really soft in my opinion. Snivel is shorter than the Sabre but I like saving altitude !
For those with a bad back I’d say the storm is easier. If you want speed , Sabre. Or be like me and have both lol
