I cannot comment on the performance of the canopy in flight as I have not flew one. However, from a rigging point of view, this canopy is a nightmare. I just bought a new Smart LPV assuming that it would compare to the Optimum and I was extremely disappointed. I own a optimum 143 and love it. It is by far the easiest reserve to pack and has the lowest pack volume of any reserve I've packed. I got a Smart LPV 110 a month ago and had very hard time getting it in the container. After finally getting it in, I packed 2 more into 2 different brands of cantainers and they all gave me trouble. I am an experienced rigger with over a thousand reserve pack jobs and I usually can pack anything. Very disappointed with this reserve
