Icarus 290 Tandem Canopy?

Recommended Posts

Unless there's something in the design phase or in testing.. there's only three sizes I'm familiar with.

Love them.

EDIT: Wait a sec... Are you thinking of the Racer Tandem Canopy? http://www.jumpshack.com/tandem_racer.htm
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Anyone have a link to this canopy on Youtube or any info on it? I know people are jumping them but there is literally nothing on the net about it...



on the nzaerosports webpage they list 300, 330, 364 and 400 tandem canopies in stock ready to ship.

Came across this earlier in the week.
it's a 250 x-braced though not a 290

I'd also like to see it land straight in. Likely still have plenty of speed to flatten out. And, I have to wonder if it would "take off" in line twists. It that thing goes to spinning from a couple of twists, you're not going to recover, other than to with the use of the reserve.
Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.
