Some of it is. On both of my Storm canopies, I found that the steering line length that PD recommends is too conservative, so I shortened them by 2" and found it just right.
There is too much slack in the factory length.
At two inches shorter, I have to put the toggles to mid-thigh before it stalls out.

I agree with you... Too much long!
Thanks to all...

Yes, sorry for The mistake...Steering line I mean. With The Sabre2 I havn't this problem!

Hi all,
I have a problem during landing with my new storm.
Before Storm I had a Sabre2 135 and I havn’t any kind of problem during landings but now with my new Storm 135, often I land too fast and I’m not able to reduce orizontal speed and to increase lift in right way. In my opinion the toggles are too long.
Could you help me to have the right length on toggles?

Have you already read this? http://www.performancedesigns.com/docs/StormCFStormFAQFlightCharacteristics.PDF,

Yes, I have read it, but a Storm seems not far from Sabre2 for lift on landings and predictable caracteristics bur better for on head openings!
Are you agree?
Thanks for your precious experience....

What are you looking for? If you do not need a spectre or a storm for something special (like wingsuiting, jumping with a heavy stuff on your head, casual CF...), you are better of with the pulse or sabre 2.

Actually I'm using a Spectre (WL 1,4), before Spectre I ave use a Sabre2 and now I'm thinking to buy a Storm...it could have more lift in landings like Sabre2...is tris right?

Stiletto and Pulse fly more flat .[/

Thanks, so they are "landings friendly" too?!
More than Sabre2 i.e.?

Hi everibody,
About PD Canopy's glide angles, could you help me to find
a list or tu put in order from the more flat to less flat?

Thanks and Blue Skyes

No, I'm going to buy an used rig!

Any problem?

Thanks
Mario

Many thanks to have give me your experience...I'm still valuing!

Mario

Hi Walt, I'm a novice freeflyer and I think that I'll continue in future too.
Actually my problem is on landing, in fact with F111 tissue without wind I havn't lift during landing!
Excuse me for my bad lenguagge!
Mario

I'm buing an used 170, ita easy to find tis kind of canopy with 200/300 jumps...I preferr to save my money to jump and to improve my experience!

Thanks to all for the precious indications, now my idea are more clear!
I think that I'll buy a Sabre2 170!

Thanks again
Mario

Yes...my exit weight is 190lbs!
Mario

Hi,
166lbs is my weight...on land, undressing the rig!
Mario

Hi and thanks for the precious indications, my instructor has advised me a Sabre2 150 but I preffer to well investigate before to move to new canopy!

Sabre2 150 or a spectre 150 are the same foe me?

Thanks again
Mario

Hi all,
I have about 150jumps and I'm using a PD170 F111tissue and I'm 166lbs...I'm looking for a 0P canopy, easy and safe to use wich will give me soft landing.
What could be the right canopy for me and in wich size?

Thanks
Mario

Ok, thanks for the precious info!
All the best
Mario
