Blade Runner was made by Chute Shop. First ones hit the market in 94 I think, it has since been replaced with a canopy called the Huricane. I can't remeber their web address - but I know they have one. Canuck ***I have a Blade Runner 135 as a second rig and ~100 jumps on it, my primary rig has a Stiletto 135 and I have ~750 jumps on it. Here is my take on the Blade Runer as compared to the stiletto, btw. both are loaded ~1.5:1 Packing similar but I roll the nose; on the BR it also packs up slightly bigger. Openings faster by a bit (harder), doesn’t like to always open on heading, specifically after inflation it will like to spin and be unstable until the brakes are released (I’m working on changing the brakes settings gradually to help solve this). Full flight, similar a little more ground hungry. Toggle Turns, more responsive it can really get going. Front Riser turns, I don’t notice any difference. Landings, about the same, but being a little more ground hungry the flare timing is a little more critical I find. Price, well I picked mine up for $200 USD. Overall I like it; I like my stiletto more, due to the twitch openings on the BR and I have considerable more jumps on the Stil. So I’m more comfortable on it.
