>like yes it oversteers, but so what?
Above a certain loading that can lead to frequent cutaways. As long as you keep the loading low you can avoid most of that though.

QuoteYou have 76 jumps, and your DZO was okay with you jumping a Diablo but not a Sabre1?
Get advice from someone else.
The Sabre1 is fine, and more appropriate to your experience level. Size is a whole other issue. Why the desire to downsize so early?
I found this interesting as well. I owned a Diablo 190 that I sold through the classified. It had 10 jumps on it when I sold it. I was never a big fan of it. My ex husband loved loved his Diablo 170 and surprised me with a new Diablo one year at the WFFC. You either love em or hate em!
Anyhow, I verified jump numbers before selling it. I had offers from people with 100 jumps and wouldn't sell it to them. I couldn't in good conscience.

Good for you. I know there are a lot of scrupled skydivers out there that are concerned about keeping our sport safe and out of the headlines (in a negative light). Sadly, there are those who are more interested in making a buck or getting their item sold regardless. Thanks for looking out for newbies and low-timers!

I sold my diablo 120 (which scared me a bit on opening just about every jump I made on it, didn't make that many...) to a very lightweight guy with 300 jumps or so, he came with good references and he test-jumped it on my DZ, but a few weeks later I saw the same canopy up for sale again...

I got my diablo 150 when I had about 300 jumps or so. There is a reason I call it my little devil. Sometimes she's pissed off when let out of the bag.
It opens smoothly, but turns really really fast. Kind of like balancing on a giant beach ball that's been coated with Vaseline. Flare leaves some to be desired.
Personally I like the way it flies, the way it responds, but the way it turns ends up being a little limiting and there are many other canopies out there that can be a fun ride without the downsides of this Diablo.
I hope you get the best price you can, but I think you might be spending some time trying to sell it for what you're asking. If it were brand new in the box you might be able to get $800 for it :(

I don't think I would actually post it for 700. That was just an estimate to see if someone would pay that. But what do you think I could get
for that? 400-500? Or not even that. That's kind of dissapointing. Cause I realy like the canopy. Its just probably not to great
for what I want to do.
