matthewcline 0 #1 September 9, 2004 Hey all! I just got a Rage 130 from Flight Concepts as a Demo. This is a truly awesome Canopy! I normally Jump a Sabre 135 or Stiletto 135. I would compare the rage to a Stiletto with a bit more horsepower. It may be like a Katana but I haven't jumped one to know. I have made several jumps on it and love its opennings and flight. Just thought any one looking, to down size into a high performance canopy or change high perfomance canopies, would want to know about this awesome ride! Call Red at Flight Concepts,he has a few Stock models and Demo's around to test and sell.An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

FrogNog 1 #2 September 10, 2004 I did two jumps on a Rage 185 a while back (loaded about 1.2:1) and I put it down and backed slowly away. It was just too much for me at 220 or so jumps, and would continue to be too much for me for a long time. Opened a hell of a lot smoother than the Sabre-1 190 I was also jumping that weekend! And it wanted to glide forever. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthewcline 0 #3 September 11, 2004 At 220 jumps even if your a conservative and mature pilot it is a high perfoamnce canopy. I am looking to scrape together the cash to keep the demo. I like it!MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
