jedei
jedei swept wing (SW)
jedei SW w/Eagle Trim (ET)

These are a few that i know of and actually owned.

But when they were making them each one was kinda different... You could request what you wanted on your Jedei and if you were not afraid to experiment - they would build it for you, I guess like the original Jonathan - always a work in progress Smile. I remember when Brian was looking at my canopy (Jedei SW ET 150), saw some detail and said "hmm... i wonder why i stopped doing this, it's a good idea, i should start doing it again". Smile

You may want to ask him directly - Brian Germain posts and reads here as:

Talk to Brian but the long and short of it is that the line evolved to the Samurai which is a fantastic canopy..

How much front riser pressure does the swept wing have vs the older jedeis? Correct me if im wrong but the swept wing was the last model of jedei to be made before the samurai.
