I have had this helmet for over a year with the Cutaway option, side mounted Aultible. Sonic at the Ranch Pro Shop made the helmet for me to grow into. What I mean by that it is. When I first got the helmet I wore as a helmet and had Sonic install some options which would help me down the road. I ordered mine with the bite Switch for my Nikon D7000. a bracket for GoPro in front and stills on top. I also had him cut out the piece on the right side and make custom for my Altituble. That way i can change it in the plane if need be without having to remove any linear and can check as well against my other altitmer for proper read out. Fast forward I have been wearing the helmet with GoPro and my heavy D7000 with a 10-24 lens and the chin cup is amazing. The linear is very comfortable. I can wear it all day and I feel great. Call Sonic at the Ranch Pro Shop! He did an awesome job and will take care of you too.

I tried different canopies after earning my A. I really enjoyed the Pulse, Sabre 2 and Pilot. I went with a Pilot 210 in ZPX. First off it is a blast. I was debating to go with the 188 but feel that the 210 still zips and gives the user lots of control while at the same time can be very forgiving. At first the ZPX was pretty hard to pack because of being slippery and because I am not the best packer. I have found that it fits into a smaller container than a 210 normally would.

This canopy is a lot of fun to fly and has a really good flare. I have not had any off heading openings or back breakers. It is very consistent and I would recommend to anyone as a great novice to advanced canopy. If you put it through its paces it is right there to respond and give you a great ride.

I custom ordered mine with custom colors and the Aerodyme team did an excellent job sending me color patch before I completed the order when I had questions. They also did a great job getting it to me before I had expected to receive it! I will buy another one when it is time to downsize.

Edited: I know own the 188 and love it even more. There is a reason they call it the Pilot it flies like a dream and is delightful when it opens. As far as harness turns and riser input well it makes me smile all day long and can also be a blast when dialing in aggressive landings.
