Some canopies have clearly lived a life. This one? It looks like it skipped the messy teenage years altogether. approx 30 jumps old!
This Pilot7-167 (DOM January 2022) has barely had a chance to stretch its legs. The fabric still has that proper crispy feel, the sort that crackles just enough to make riggers smile and packers mutter under their breath. It doesn’t look like it’s spent weekends being dragged across every student landing area in the country. Think soaring eagle, not tired old seagull fighting over hot chips.
Openings you should expect from a modern 7-cell – predictable, confidence-inspiring and happy to get on with the job without trying to rearrange your spine. Whether you’re looking for a dependable everyday canopy or something suited to wing-suit flying, this one is ready to earn its keep instead of sitting in a gear cupboard.
The line set presents very well with only light signs of use, and overall it is simply a tidy, honest canopy that still has that “new gear” feel. Opportunities to buy a PT7 in this sort of condition don’t come along very often. If you’ve been waiting for the right one instead of just any one, this might be it.
