I got my Xaos21-98sq.ft. a few months ago and I love it! I jumped a 9cell with similar size before. The difference is huge! The flare is amazing, the openings are very soft. Important: Don't buy a Canopy in this performance range before you're ready. I have had 300 jumps on a 95sq.ft. 9cell before, but this Xaos is just another league! The speed is amazing. When you release the brakes you can feel the acceleration and my first thought was: How am I going to land this monster? Openings are great if the pack job was good. This is not a Spectre! If you pack shitty, that's the way the canopy will open. So be careful. I didn't have a twist so far and believe me, I don't want to have one! For my taste, front riser pressure in full flight is a bit high. But you can steer just by shifting weight in the harness. Overall, the best canopy I've ever jumped. In the crossbraced-range I jumped the Neos and the Velocity as well. blue sky!

This is overall the best dropzone I've been to in Switzerland. (I've seen most of them) very friendly, professional, good facilities with all you need. Beautiful paint job on the PC6!

I had the chance to test jump a friends Neos 109. Thanks Frank! Wingload was 1.9. The opening was very soft, softer than my Spectre that I used to jump a few years ago. Speed range is wide, the flare out of a 'straight in approach' was solid and ended with a few steps. The toggle pressure is very high compared to a non cross braced. I just made one jump under this canopy, but I am very impressed. Great canopy for the ambitious swooper who is looking for a cross braced with great openings... blue sky
