Sabre2 170 Swoops!

[@MrElementleader]

Great job, mate and thx for that video - it shows that there is no need to downsize as aggressive as it sems to be the flavour of the week at the moment. Proper technique and practice make perfect und takes away the necessity for going small way, way, way too soon. Blue skies brother and be safe!

[@organiccombat7021]

Working on dz control I see hundreds of canopies land every day. I can safely say there are not very many pilots this experienced on a 170. Beautiful flying

[@loveguitar2x]

see you can swoop without downsizing!!! *telling myself lol

[@FF614]

nice!!! amazing swoops and very good turn technique!!!

[@jonathansalgado9194]

I had no idea that’s such good swoops can be done with a bigger canopy

[@dylanslater83]

Sabres are the greatest 🤟

[@dustindesalvo]

First time on the pond. Beer!

[@king4bear]

Imagine how many amazing swoopers would still be around if they'd perfected swooping on a higher wingloading instead of trying to downsize as fast as possible.

[@alletklameista]

that is beautiful work dude

[@voidance]

Great video, thanks for uploading.

[@tomasmatos1998]

Very good work, luv it. It really shows what 1000+ jumps on same canopy (or at least same size and type) can do for you. Though, it must be quite heavy to pull those front risers while jumping all day long hehehe Blue skies ;) and keep landing like that so I can watch and learn hehe

[@WashingtonRamosCastro]

Tirando o melhir do velame, mesmo não sendo um eliptico de alta performance!

[@highflyer-skyfpv6531]

Does the term "front riser hook turn" exist any more ? I've still got my 150 Pintail, must be an antique now. I tried a 120 Pintail many years ago at the Langar boogie

[@PakaLolo137]

This is just awesome. Very good job buddy. ;-)

[@MattiasFlybring]

The size seems off to me.. does'nt look like a 170 when you put it down.

[@jonasghafur4940]

well it’s loaded rather heavily at 1.33 but still very impressive what he puts down on a 170

[@David-tp7mc]

@@jonasghafur4940 1.33 is heavy?

[@flybeep1661]

@@David-tp7mc I guess for a 170 it is.

[@lobbyrobby]

Have you flown the 3? If so what's your thoughts

[@alexcampack]

Very nice!

Excelente Felicitaciones 🪂🤙🏼

[@douglasbilodeau2579]

Nice

[@paultextor4673]

Just broke myself on a 170 1.3 ish WL (attempting a front riser “swoop” as they call it)......I cry. So do femur and L3.

[@Rockajaw]

That fucking blows. Hope your recovery goes smooth and get some canopy coaching!

[@alexandermarchgraber6050]

how many feets do you swoop blue skies

[@Jonnyboy868]

Most of them

[@dylanbell9651]

How many jumps do you have?

[@Jonnyboy868]

Dylan Bell 1400 at the time. about 1200 on a sabre2 170

[@sergeipetrov_rzn]

@@Jonnyboy868 you do take your sweet time - nice

[@hansenallan84]

I'd be interested in the wingload?

[@marcinsowik2390]

Good!!!

[@215carkeys]

Are you using the harness at all in your turns?

[@Jonnyboy868]

215carkeys yes on about the last 90 of the turn, usually.

[@timrf79]

what is your WL on that canopy?

[@Jonnyboy868]

1.33

[@yorgos994]

What is your wing load? And what alt you start a turn

[@alerag2298]

2:16

[@skyplexa]

What DZ is that?

[@215carkeys]

What size canopy did you start practicing on swooping?

[@Jonnyboy868]

This one. The Sabre 2 170

[@215carkeys]

Jonnyboy868 I think I watched this video 100 times. I just downsized from a 190 Sabre 2. My wing loading on my Sabre 2 170 is 1.5. I only put 3 jumps on it so far. I only have 447 jumps. I notice no difference between the 190 & 170. The 170 actually feels like it has "higher" front riser pressure. What's your opinion?

[@dmitrychumakov3643]

Намана

[@xyzxyzxyz19]

Bad ass dude... Time to downsize
