Atair custom canopy rocks

**space** · October 4th, 2004, 03:28 PM

I just witnessed a jump on a new, low glide ratio / High lift canopy that Stane designed. The canopy responded immediately to input, turned in place via actually flying backwards on one side whilst the other side flew forward. The off heading and recovery looked more like a sashay. I am very impressed. It looked like the wingtips swapped and only sunk 4-5m in the manuver. Good one Stane! Respect!

I am not sure, It was a custom design for rocky landing areas almost directly beneath the exit point. I´ll see if i can get a vid posted. It may take a few days. Till then,

awesome canopies... too bad they can't ship as advertised.

**Uberchris** · November 23rd, 2009, 04:24 PM

meaning what length of time for delivery? im ordering a new troll dw in january so im curious as to what u mean

**Blitzkrieg** · November 24th, 2009, 07:11 AM

yes. a friends canopy has currently still not materialized and was promised before bridge day.

it really sucks when you're counting on the times advertised and then you get no word at all when it will be done or why it will be late.

i c. damnit its gonna be next spring by the time im all geared up and ready. maybe i should look into a seven..........

ok so as usual, i got it a bit wrong. the canopy seems to be running a week or two late... but it was not "promised" for bridge day. i apologize for the misquote.

either way, late is late... and that sucks. but, i do like their canopies. mine came on time for the record, but that was a few years ago.
