  1. Build quality is very good, material is thick, vectran or HMA lines.
    I've done 200+ jumps with Odyssey-95 (1.9), tried 110, 90 and 85 sizes.
    In comparison with Crossfire-2:
    Opens soft on-heading but a bit faster than Ñrossfire.
    Front risers is similar to Crossfire's, recovery arc is longer, rear risers works excellent. Canopy likes high loads, I tried Odyssey-85 (the smallest available) with w/l about 2.1 is still opens and flies great with very powerful flare.
    Absolutely recommended for looooong swoops, very good for cameramen.

  2. I have 100+ jumps on my Neos-89 (loaded 2.03), I like it!
    It opens softly like Crossfire, first stage - it snivel about 3 sec, second - while inflating, it starts to fly forward, and You can effectively steer it by legs until it inflates.
    It dives deeper than Xaos27 of same size!
    Soft front risers, a bit hard rears, powerful flare and high oversteer - You may stop rotation by opposite front riser or leg.
