  1. I am on my third Infinity and the customer service has been outstanding from day one. Kelly has ALWAYS been helpful and on the spot with any of my needs. THAT is a rarity in todays world.

  2. I jumped the Axon 170 at the Eloy Holiday Boogie. It is the most highly loaded canopy I have jumped to date. I videoed each of the openings and all of them were very good and on heading. When the canopy was backed with the nose rolled as I normally like it the opening was soft and on heading... when it was packed with no roll on the nose and just a normal propack it opened briskly but not uncomfortably. My openings tend to be a bit faster due to my fall rate being a bit greater than the majority of jumpers.

    The flight was good but I would have preferred a bit more time while under canopy but a boogie with a 3500 ft ceiling was not a good place for opening high and really wringing it out. I will add more details in the next couple weeks. I have one in my posession now and will be jumping it when we get a ceiling here over 2000 ft.( Darn Clouds)

    The handling was excellent although the toggle pressure was a bit more than what I am used to but not uncomfortably so. Risers turns were crisp and it recovered nicely.
    The landings were VERY nice.. with plenty of lift and a good surf in the low wind conditions I was jumping.I just had to fly the canopy till the speed was gone and then it shut down noicely.

    The canopy is VERY well constructed and has similar performance to a Sabre2 or to a Pilot. I think ANYONE who tries one will be pleasantly surprised. The people at IPT will be getting more demo canopys ready with a demo program soon. If you see me at a Boogie or at a DZ in the NW I will be happy to let you demo my 170.
