Deuce 1 #1 November 22, 2002 Yes, this is the kind of "bad thing" it's a "good thing" to have to put up with. First jump on new canopy tomorrow! It took so long to get it I honest-to-God don't remember the color configuration! It came already packed up. I could look at the order form, but heck, I figure it's gonna be like seeing a girl naked for the first time! Yeee-har! 22 hours to load one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #4 November 22, 2002 I hate jumping a differen't canopy and not knowing what to expect when you throw out. Especially a brand new one that might have some "kinks" in it. Oh well....I'm sure it will be a good thing though. Have fun!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TB99 0 #6 November 22, 2002 Congrats!! I'm waiting for my new canopy ... It's so hard waiting! Mine's not SCHEDULED to be done until the 16th of December ... we'll see when it arrives, lol. I've been waiting for what seems like forever for this Sabre2 135 ... the nice thing is at least I've had another Sabre2 135 to jump until mine came in. Enjoy you're new canopy, and have fun packing it, lol. I psycho pack, so it'll be easier with the new canopy than pro packing. Trailer 11/12 was the best. Thanks for the memories ... you guys rocked!

Wow. That sounds like nothing but a good thing! New Spectre 150. I think it's gonna be mostly royal blue with three red cells and black stabilizers. The same guy that packed it packed the reserve.

Getting the air out of a new canopy is the same process. Just roll around on top until it's all out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
