What type of canopy do you fly?

[Canuck 0]

I keep hearing that cross-braced canopies only make up about 5% of the market, but it seems in these forums that every other person is flying one, so lets find out.

If you have more than one canopy just list your highest performing one (yes I realize that's very subjective).

Forgot to put 9-cell squares in the poll. If you jump one, list it as a 9-cell tapered.

Also, the category 7-cell covers them all, whether square, tapered, or fully elliptical.

Yeah, I didn't want it to get too long. I figured all the 7-cells could go together, and forgot all about 9-cell squares. Can't figure out how to add it in though, so for people jumping one, list it is a 9-cell tapered (or some Greenie could fix it perhaps?)

I guess I could also add 11-cells for those one or two people with an old AR-11, 8-cells, 5-cells, rounds, etc....

Right now a Navigator 260. Had a terminal ride on a Raven 282-M on Saturday though. I'm still trying to think of what I'm going to tell my boss when she asks why I'm walking funny tomorrow .

That would depend on the kind of jump I am doing.
My primary canopies are Katanas although I also have a couple of Stilettos in different sizes, a Sabre and a Spectre.

Samurai 150

I got a strong urge to fly, but I got no where to fly to. -PF

For weekend play my personnal canopy is a Sabre 135. But a Rage 120 is in the works.

For Demo's (my job) a 7 cell Star Trak 2
For the VIP Tandems (part of my job) Sigma 395
For Camera and coach jumps (while on the job) Stiletto 135.

An Instructors first concern is student safety.
So, start being safe, first!!!

Owning that many canopies/rigs is Gods way of telling you that you have way too much disposable income.
