I jumped a 150 Samurai (don't know if it was Signature or not) and it performed like my Stiletto 135, but had more on-heading openings.

PD actually sews and cuts all the non signature series canopies. The Signature series is a bit more money but you get tweeks to the canopy. Generally I think the Sam flies a lot like a Crossfire. I can't wait for the Katana 135 to come out to do a head to head on it.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites larsrulz 0 #14 February 14, 2005 QuoteHow much are those canopies, and how ground hungry? I jumped a 150 Samurai (don't know if it was Signature or not) and it performed like my Stiletto 135, but had more on-heading openings. Yikes, I know my Sam 150 loves those diving turns on opening. The former owner, openings were the main reason he sold, was informed by Brian that increasing the wingloading can help with it, but I'm certainly not willing to find out right now. No other issues, and I don't really consider it a problem...just have to be that much more aware once you throw out. Not sure the difference in how the signature series performs (but I'm under the impression that mine was made personallly by Brian as it was ordered directly from him at the WFFC, and Brian made a number of personal calls to the former owner when he couldn't use a certain color for the ribs as requested) but the samurai isn't ground hungry. Thanks to the air locks, I can stay up on level with rectangular canopies at a WL of 1:1 or less, and I stay on level with an equally loaded stilleto without any input. I got a strong urge to fly, but I got no where to fly to. -PF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites DrewEckhardt 0 #15 February 14, 2005 QuoteQuoteSwoop-a-licious ! I love mine too.
