curator 0 #1 April 22, 2006 Hi all. New here and out of the sport for a while (~20+ years), and never had the heart to dispose of my gear. Had fantasies about starting a club or DZ, and did some collecting, all of which has been in storage. I now need to make it go away. The museum includes a paracommander, cross-bow, delta II, small (original) paraplane, 26' navy con, and various 24' and 28' rounds. I suppose I could cut the lines off and ebay, but it just feels wrong. Suggestions anyone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #2 April 22, 2006 Save them for water jumps... I jumped a Papillion into the lake at Lost Prairie Last summer. Heck if they are inspected and still jumpable why not.... I would not take them terminal but for hop and pops into the lake... great fun.

AggieDave 6 #7 April 22, 2006 There's folks out there that LOVE vintage gear. Drop me a line and I'll try to put you in touch with a couple of friends that love vintage gear if you want to get rid of it.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Snowwhite 0 #10 April 24, 2006 hey have one last great skydiving fling at the WFFC in July. It'll only cost you 49 bucks to come a party for 10 days, and you'll find all kinds of people there who are into stuff you have. We have a pc jump or two every year. Bring them there and have a great garage sale to people who will really appreciate what you have. Cross post it on our website if you'd like!skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
