Much faster than a Triathlon & flared better too.  It would dive out of the sky & had a real nice swoop/flare.  The Omega is a semi-elliptical 7 cell. Probably a lot like the old Diablo from Aerodyne.

I think the Safire 2 is an all around better canopy than the Omega.  I now have a Pilot 150 & I love it.  I bought the standard ZP fabric.  I'd talk to Lucky Chuck.  He can get you a better deal than Icarus.  FYI: Both Icarus & Aerodyne have demo programs.
