Manbird and hkf,

The problem you have described is not just related to the Katana!


Hey now, both hkf and I specifically stated that this wasn't a Katana issue, so don't assume otherwise. At this stage in the game, I believe we are both well aware of the affects of brake line length and dive loop position on a front riser turn. Another reason why this thread should be broken up, says I...

Almost didn't post this as it's a bit embarassing!!!
I always make a point of keeping hold of my toggles until they are stowed again, but somehow a good few twists had gotten into my brake lines.Blush Canopy is now back to as new condition, did a 270 way high on purpose then rode it on loads of double fronts and it was sweet as anything. Openings have also become awesome. soft and on-heading.

Jumped a xf2 99 at the weekend, seemed like a bigger lower performance canopy than the Katana 107. Don't wanna say to much about it as I only put a couple of jumps on it and may not have given it a fair chance.
