Shimell, How does a non x-brace feel/fly at that kind of loading? I've been told that the performance of a 9 cell drops off dramatically when it's loaded higher than say 2.0.

Scoop 0 #29 June 13, 2007 Out of interest were the 3+ WL canopies landed or were they played around with and chopped away up high? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swondpooper 0 #30 June 13, 2007 Hi, the jump with the Blade 58 on a WL of 3,489 was just for testing the Canopy. (Who got the smallest) ;-) There was no Point of Speed or Distance..... I think this is still the smallest non x-Braced Canopy who was landed. (help me out if i am wrong) g. tobiTo be old and wise, 1st you have to be young and stupid......

brianfry713 0 #32 June 15, 2007 4.5 on a Mr. Bill on a VX 90. I wasn't really flying it, just hanging onto the guy attached to it. I let go around 3,000 feet. The max I've landed is a Sabre 2 135 at 1.85 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
