Super-Seven 190
Rated by: dancy (more about me) on 2008-09-01 00:27:20 (user reviews) Review ID:2052

Pros: Soft, on heading opening, nice flare
Cons: none at all

This 190 Super-Seven is my first own canopy and I've put only a couple of jumps in it. Openings are ideal, very nice, soft and always on-heading, but never too slow. The canopy is responsive to toggle input and stable in turbulence. I find it really easy to fly. A collapsible pilot chute added a lot to the pleasure. My wing loading is 1.1. Very good beginner canopy.

nothing special
Rated by: widget (more about me) on 2003-10-21 00:00:00 (user reviews) Review ID:805

Pros: safe canopy
Cons: horrible on turbulences

My weight is 70kg with equipment and I'm owner of Super Seven 135 wit 100 skydives with it. Openings are nice, but only when you cover nose of the canopy by slider. Flying is nice, but this canopy is very delicate. Landings are very nice and easy on good conditions. On high wind conditions or on turbulences don't touch front risers to land! It used to collapse. Conclusion is that it's nice and safe canopy but there is a few problems. You can buy if you have special ocasion, but if you want to buy 7-cell, just buy PD Spectre. It's little better construction.
