Did anyone base jump with an Atair sail slider on a MDV TRoll??
I have one and haven't jumped with it yet; I need some inputs from others who did it.
This Atair sail slider is collapsible and I'm wondering if is good on heading or ..not. I would use it Only for terminal jumps...Hope to get some answers from you. Thanks!

sailslider is for skydiving. go skydive. when basejump that canopy, change the slider please

Ok...I'll do that..Just curious if someone tried this slider in Base ...and is still here to tell others how it was..

I've taken an Ace 310 and a Flik 293 off a 2000' A with a sail slider, a few times on each with delays ranging from 7-12 seconds. I experienced terrible heading performance but had plenty of room to deal with it. The sniveling canopy gives you an extra second to get your hands on the controls before it starts flying.

Thanks for the reply! I am interested about this sail slider especially because of a back injury- and I just want a much softer opening...without compromising the on heading..-if possible
