Re: [artemiy] Canopy for wingsuit and subs?
Troll MDV would be a good choice

Re: [juanitos] Canopy for wingsuit and subs?
Thanks for the reply juanitos.
and do i need to change slider to a small hole mesh slider on Troll MDV for wingsuit jumps?
Also anyone can tell what are the cons of jumping Hybrid LD on a regular (non-track/wingsuit) jump?

my back strongly disagrees with you. I have had the worst openings at terminal with a smackjack.

just for reference, here are canopies I took to terminal, so I do have a valid sample size

Troll DW MDV
Troll MDV
Flik Vtec
Flik
Fox
Fox vented
Mojo
ACE
Blackjack
Trango
Trango with ZP nose

Judging from the fact that Apex claims that their Ultralite works for SD, and it can be ordered with thin Dacron and any number of vents- Flik/Fox ultralite is probably his all-in-one solution.

fwiw...
I've disabled the poll. it seemed to have little in common with the post, or any level of seriousness.

as a general reminder, the Technical forum is intended as a more serious forum, with less banter. it should be a high signal to noise forum. recently, I was given the authority to monitor this one as well...

Except for Trango has no option for vents, and comes standard with ZP nose. Both of those make it open and fly differently.

Seven, easily. Have jumped 5000 foot wingsuit jumps, and freefallen 240 feet with it. Packs up small, opens nice. I dont like vents at terminal.
