I have been flying Saber2 170 (loaded at 1.08) currently I own Sabre2 150 loaded at 1.23. Packing: I do a regular PRO pack. Openings: very soft and comfortable always on heading. End sells most of the time are closed, but it is not bothering me at all. At this wing loading, when I finished stowing my slider they already inflated, or I just pump the brakes once. Flight: Very predictable, all kind of toggle turns are sharp and precise. Front riser pressure is comfortably light. I am 5'9" and at factory brakes settings I was not able to stall my canopy. When I started to learn my dual front riser approach, and 90 deg. front riser turns for landing, I found that toggle factory settings are too short. Canopy becomes bumpy, especially in windy conditions. Flare and landing: I was not really consistent with my landings on 170. On my 150 I have my toggle brakes set 2 inches longer. I almost always pull the front risers to gain more speed and flare is nice and powerful.

Hey, Did you have a success with your small digital Pentax setup. How did you do it, Could you post some hi-res results and a close-up picture of your camera mounted on the helmet. I am really interested to go the same way. Tnx. Jack G.

Wondering if anyone of you guys has a success of shooting hi-res digital still pics from Small Non SLR camera and can describe his setup. Can it produce pics with similar quality of D60? Attached pics was made with D60. But it is a bulky and heavy setup. I am not a pro and would like to avoid any SLR camera on my helmet. Jack G.
