I used to have a stiletto 150, a stiletto 135, a katana 120 and now I have a velocity 103. My velo has great openings, it searchs a little but it's normal. Opens better than the katana I used to have. Airpollution, rent a katana for a couple of jumps and buy a velo 103, the transition is very easy from a katana, the velo is an amazing canopy. Safe landings

Can't decide on Katana(135) or Crossfire(139)
Sadcat replied to skycam888's topic in Gear and Rigging
Choose the katana. I used to have a katana 120 and it was great. Before that I was jumping a stiletto 135. The katana has lighter front riser pressure. The openings are not bad but nothing compared with my velo 103 that is so sweet opening. -
Buy from PD, it's only 10 weeks for custom colors. And all canopies from then are great.

Rdutch, I use in the first 180 degrees risers and harness, but for the last 90 degrees I only use harness because the risers are far away heavy. At what altitude do you start your turn? Safe landings sadcat

I jump a velo 103 at 2.15:1 and my set up for the 270 is 750 ft. I'm doing a moderate slow turn. What's yours?

Very good video. Thanks for sharing it.

I mean Speed 2000 135 from Paratec. A very popular reserve from Europe

Who packs smaller and what are there real size in sq. ft. Thank you

Pros and cons of each other.Differences in the front riser pressure, landings, recovery arc, etc. I fly a Stiletto 135 and I want to know about the Demon 130.Thanks

Crossfire2 129 - front riser pressure
Sadcat replied to Sadcat's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
I'm jumping a Stiletto 135 and it's a very good canopy, but it's old ( lots of jumps ) and I want to buy a new canopy. I want to know if the Crossfire2 129 has lighter front riser pressure, and bigger bottom end flare. If this is true is it significative. And about the pack volume, who packs bigger. Thanks -
9 cells or 21 cells with a WL 1.74 for swooping
Sadcat replied to Sadcat's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
You are right, I have 764 jumps, 5 years in Sport, I fly a stiletto 135 and I don't want do downsize in the near future. Maybe in the next season. I intentionaly did not put my number of jumps because of the moral replies. Sorry. -

Sadcat replied to Sadcat's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
What's the advantages and disavantages of the two shapes for swooping with this specifique wing loading. I want technical information. Who is the best choice considering that the skills is not a problem, and I'm not thinking of me of course, it's an hipotetical situation. Thank you. -
who is best in quality and performance. I'm just looking for some general info on these canopies compared to each other.

Can I use a Stiletto 135 in a Vector III V348M?
Sadcat replied to Sadcat's topic in Gear and Rigging
Hi, I have a Vector III V348M that is for a Stiletto 170. I made 400 jumps with a Stiletto 150 with this harness and I want to know if i can use the same harness for a Stiletto 135 with safe. I like this harness a lot, it fits me well. I don't want to buy a new one if it's not necesary. Thank you all
