Frequently asked

What sizes does the Sabre2 come in?

Performance Designs lists the Sabre2 in the sizes listed on its website.

What is the Sabre2 designed for?

Performance Designs does not publish a single designed-for statement we could verify.

How do I work out my wing loading on a Sabre2?

Wing loading = exit weight in pounds (you plus all your gear) divided by the canopy size in square feet. The manufacturer's chart then shows which category that loading falls in. It is information, not approval to fly a size — decide with your canopy coach.
