  7. just trying to get some advice here, I have a Sbare 2 190 with about 70 jumps on this canopy, 1.05:1. Looking at downsizing to a sabre 2 170 1.1:1 not a real big change, I have maybe 85 jumps. told the guys at the dropzone but didn't get much response, Havn't burned in on my 190 at all since i have had it, and have also had some low turns that scared me earlier on but my feet never touched the ground hard.

  • Yeah, I don't hear many stories about my dad jumping, but i know he has quite a few jumps, and just a couple of days ago he said he want's to make another jump with me. Makes me proud of what happend with lost prairie, where i came from. I would rather jump with the old time osprey jumpers anyday. Oh yeah and mcissac (sp) will be greatly missed, one of the best guys I knew tought me allot about skydiving. Well, the skydive sounds like a plan, just got my own gear and have bean jumping my ass off the last couple weeks, anyways ill be home for the boogie and the week after... so lets make a few jumps.

  • fred, lenny mikey and lena
    I hope you are all staying strong, what a tragedy. My prayers and thoughts are with every one in the prairie. Joel, dave and the rest of the crew will be sorely missed.
    Joel, my first true friend in skydiving caring, funny and spontaneous although we never got to make that jump we planned all those night last summer, someday..
    I hope you all stay strong, my condolences to the families of the lost,
    Fred or mikey, Want' you to know I will be their for the boogie anything you need at all do not hesitate to ask, anything at all. I know i might not be able to do allot because of my inexperience but please keep in mind. I hope you all stay strong through these rough times[:/]

  • true true, but I'm planning on getting something different than a sabre, maybe a sabre 2 but really leaning to a spectra, anythoughts on that canopy?

  • I got a hell of a deal on the rig, I bought the rig for $1000 a talon one container, a 175 reserve and this sabre, I am about 6'0 185 lbs so i think it is a little small to start out with so im trying to get into a sabre 2 210 or something of that sort, maybe a spectra

  • Am i screwing myself? I have a Sabre 190 D.O.M 4-1998, zero p3 great condition. Lines look good, no rips tears or nothing like that. New to skydiving gear and prices, Im selling it for 700 U.S.D i don't know what one is going for. This one is in good shape and has around 350 jumps. What would you sell it for?:(

  • Kinda a newbie to the sport, but I have a Sabre 190 with about 350 jumps, The D.o.m is 4-1998, zero p3, good condition with no little rips or tears. Lines are in good shape. What would you guess for a good retail price?
