  2. How can no one mention Bill daus over 30K and still going
  3. Johnny is dead on with everything about this canopy and is one of the only people to listen to about Icarus products since he works for the company! It is not old tech it is been in research and development for 5 years. To answer the question of the orginal thread; demo both canopies and make your decision. If the company does not offer a demo then theres your answer right there! The neos is not in any canopy class it is the only canopy with this design. All in all it is a awesome canopy if you want a honest opinion demo one for yourself. Are you going to buy a car with out test driving it. And remember to EACH HIS OWN! Oh yeah dont listen to TJ 12k and still cant land!lol Dusty Smith Icarus Canopies Mirage Sys Cookie Composite Sonic Flywear
  4. dont need one for a while just want to jump any size to compare! Even though I am a factory pilot I like to demo everything so when I coach I have a feeling of how different canopys perform. You didnt tell me or show me the canopy at PIA. Would of liked to! Been a long time since though vids. I would like to see me flailing also, keeps me humble. I suck anyway!

  5. Looks like a velo if not tell me whats different than a velo. No offence to you Bryan just want to know! I would like to try just to compare! Tell Dan to send one with his crew of testers to eloy a 79! Dusty Smith Icarus Canopies Mirage Sys Cookie Composite Sonic Flywear
  6. I never post here but here it goes one time. Ian is the most correct here. EDUCATE! no matter what you do with the landing ares or the degree of turns there will always be accidents. The more people know right from the begining ie student status harp on canopy piloting. I have so many people that come to my seminars and have no clue of what a pattern is what there control inputs do how to hold in brakes and most of all fly with your head on a swivel. People please no matter what get educated on the sport of canopy piloting no matter if your jumping a safire 190 to a extreme 79 the sport is evolving stay up with your skills.

  7. Thank everyone on this site since this post this guy has paid me.Quote Dusty Smith Icarus Canopies Mirage Sys Cookie Composite Sonic Flywear
  8. My name is Dusty Smith I work at Skydive AZ. I had a rig sent to Finland for this guy to buy and he did not send me my money. I thought it was in my account when I sent it but it was not. It has been about 6 months and this guy keeps e-mailing me saying he is going to pay it. Bullshit! So I need some help from the community and people that know me. The rig was a Mirage G3 I used to jump when I was on Elsinore Eclipse-Purple and Yellow and has the logo on the mud flap. So anyone in finland or that knows this guy help me out . His name is PETER LENTINEN HE OWES ME EITHER 650.00 OR MY RIG BACK. If you have any info call me at [email protected] thanks pimp d You can find him on this web site pete.fi so if anyone reconizes this guy and sees him tell me right away. He found my rig on this web site. Dusty Smith Icarus Canopies Mirage Sys Cookie Composite Sonic Flywear
