  1. I was jumping a 200 elliptical the sucked landing on hot no wind days. I made three jumps on a demo PULSE on a Sunday. Monday morning I ordered one! I made two more and really fell in love with it! It levels out fast after hard toggle turns and the landings are a no brainer even in hot no wind days. This is my opinion of the PUSLE. I've not jumped a SABRE.
  2. Nothing, and I mean Nothing, beats a FireBolt for openings. Call Nancy or Suzie at Jumpshack for a demo. You'll be surprised!
  3. WOW, no sleeves and look at the brutal openings! Probably received the cuts from eating his instruments during opening shock!
  4. For those of you who responded THANK YOU!! I'm on a limited budget and can't afford to demo every canopy. I used this poll to determine which canopy to demo...looks like Sabre2 is the winner! Thanks again to everybody who responded!!!
  5. So you have no problem sending me $200.00 so I can demo both right? It's simple, if it's Pulse/Sabre then that's what I'll spend my hard earned money on to demo! At over $2000.00 a pop I don't have the time or money to waste on a canopy that doesn't give me the performance I want! Jumper feedback is always important, to me at least, on what gear is worth it/don't waste your time! I asked a simple fucking question to which you come up with a smart ass response! Save your comments for some poor newbie who doesn't know any better!
  6. I'm petty sure I specified which canopy has better bottom end performance. That pretty much narrows it down to what I'm looking for!! I've been jumping a lot longer than most instructors, since 76, so that tired excuse won't work. At $100.00 a pop for a PD demo it can get expensive "trying" them all! If you can't get a straight answer to a straight question then delete this forum as it serves no purpose!!!
  7. I'm in the market to buy a new canopy and am trying to decide between the Pulse or Sabre 2. The main factor is how well each canopy behaves at the bottom end...LANDING!
  8. Not too long ago there was a newspaper article on one of the chutes washing up on the Lake Erie shore some 30 years after. If I can find it I'll upload it.
  9. Have someone on the ground video your landings. It's a great help! Also make sure your hands/toggles are all the way up prior to flaring. Whatever you do don't give up!!! Welcome to the sport!
