    any experience with a dagger??

    Hi everyone I'm new to the site. i have got my hands on a old dagger 244 dom 2001. It was hard to find this out the canopy had no name nothing just a blank canopy. I happen to find a serial number in the center cell stamped on the load tape. Anyways was wondering if anyone had experience with this canopy in flight. Control. Opening. Basically anything about it possible. There's not that much about this canopy out there. I have searched forums and can't get much on it.hell only seen one photo of a dagger. Why is there not much out there on this canopy. Surely there a person with a nice bit of jumps on the dagger to help out and someone who's knows it's history . Thanks. Please if your a experience bully just don't post I don't have a ton of jumps or have I tried a bunch of different canopys

    The Dagger was Vertigo's (Marta Empinotti and Jimmy Pouchert, who merged with Basic Research to become Apex BASE) second BASE canopy after the Dragon. My Dagger 244 was a little flatter flying and more skydive-canopy like than my Fox 245 but still sank OK in deep brake approaches.

    Thanks for info helps out. Mine is a 244 also. Packs kinda goofy unless I move my clamp right over the B lines then that helps. Think packing tabs are a bit off seem to close to the A,s
