jimmytavino 16 #5 February 17, 2011 i put 1,300 jumps on the same RW Challenger 240 which was the Only brand new main, i have ever bought.... It was made By New England Parachute Company in the early 1990's... ( John Eiff, Carol Christianson, Randy Thompson, out of Conn. ) i flat packed it.. and put 800 or so, pack jobs on it , packing it on the left chord.. And then flipped it over to the right chord, and and did approx. 500 more... F 111 fabric. original lineset. never had a malfunction while jumping that main... Still have it...still airworthy... When i got it, it retailed at 1,000 dollars, custom colors but they offered a 33% discount sale. so i got it for under 700 bucks... split slider... nice main... but of course , pretty large pack volume... jt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 718 #6 February 17, 2011 I have a Spectre 150, bought it new in '04. She's got around 12-1300 jumps on it and is still in damn near perfect shape. One new line set so far and no patches. The slider has been worked on a bit but that's all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimjumper 25 #8 February 18, 2011 I had over 800 on my Cruislite Xl (F-111) with no malfunctions or repairs. i stopped jumping it when I got a free replacement canopy but I still have it just for nostalgia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhys 0 #10 February 18, 2011 I put 800 on a maveric 200 that was second hand.... a further 800 on a heatwave that was also second hand about 700 on a crossfire that had 1000 jumps on it already A good zp canopy that is looked after should be able to do at least 2000 jumos if looked after and relined accordingly."When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had to buy mine, but I got my sabre I at around 50 jumps, and have so far put about 250 jumps on it. I specifically like the openings. It opens when I pull, instead of sniveling for 1000 feet or more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 0 #19 February 18, 2011 I switch around canopies a lot. I tend to put 200-500 jumps on the ones I own/have owned myself and like: spectre 150 spectre 135 safire 135 safire 119 vengeance 135 fusion 120 pilot 124 Right now I own the bottom 3 plus a foil 252. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
virgin-burner 1 #20 February 20, 2011 all you guys jumping sabre(1)'s like 2000+ times; reading through these forums, you should be dead and if not, should have like 50 times a broken back!!! i put 200 jumps on that one while it had, hell knows, probably already WAY OVER 1000 jumps on it already.. new lineset at the time. opened snappy but never hard. unlike the student-canopies i used to jump. never got ONE bruise.. sure, opens fast, but never painful or uncomfortable! i loved my sabre1. the flare, meh, not so much. i have a new safire2 now with 60 jumps on it, and it still flies great! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

champu 1 #21 February 21, 2011 About 900 on my current Velo 90. It's on its third line set and second slider. The rest of my canopies are listed in this thread from a while back. I plan to jump it until it explodes (preferably during a strength test during a reline) and then buy another one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
