Maybe the answer would be the Silhouette should not be loaded so heavily unless flown by an expert.
It also varies person to person. My first canopy was a Silh 210 and I'm pushing 240 out the door. I think it flies just fine but I did notice the flare was different than the safire 2 I was flying.
Coaches/riggers recommend smaller first canopy than CSPA manual. Who do I listen to?
