Yes I have, there is a slight arc to the brake lines. I have to position the toggles at my shoulders to pick up the slack.

I just started jumping a crossfire 1 109sq.ft canopy that had the factory mods to it. The fabric is still crisp and the lines are slightly freyed in some places and appear dirty. The openings and flight characteristics are great except for the flare. I have to bury the toggles just keep from busting my butt, and this is in 15 mph winds. What is going on? I would like to purchase this canopy but not with a flare like this. All I can think of is the line set is out of wack. Does this canopy just need a new line set? I have flown larger crossfires and they were nothing like this.

I was 40 min away on business and thought I would just drive down to check it out not intending on jumping. I was late in the day in the middle of the week at the very begining of the season. The drive out was awesome (From Texas). I rolled up saw the Otter and 206's and got excited. The people that were there were wonderful and after showing them my skydiving credentials, they they wanted to get a load up and they had good rental gear sooooo....how could I pass it up. It was awesome, They were hella friendly and let me borrow all the gear I needed. We rocketed up in the 206 (on steroids)and I go the tour all the way up. You could clearly see all of Boston MA, Manchester NH, Cap Cod...It was way cool. We had an awesome dive and a scenic Canopy ride. As I said before I'll be back!!!
