I had a buddy that had one also. He cut it away 2-3 times, the last time into the Red River, and he said good riddance. I have a question, after reading all this, does anyone know of a Cobra10 that had MORE than 200 jumps put on it with no trouble? Not me,,,,,

I put ~300 jumps on mine without any problems. It seemed to be in good shape the day I sold it.
I used the standard side pack on it. But I did roll the nose to slow down the openings a bit. It only took about 300' to open. But that was a slow opening compared to my piglet.

Ha ha.. that's funny. I had one sink into the Red River.. doing a demo for Bell's Amusement Park... Had a green smoke on my right ankle... bad hard opening, broke several suspension lines. The hard opening ripped the smoke velcro off my ankle, and the smoke looked like Wily Coyote spinning into the crevasse. Cut away the spinning, snarled Cobra and popped Preserve III. The Cobra dead centered the Red and sank, I presume, like a rock. I landed on the west bank and walked out to the more clear brushy area.
Goodbye to bad trash..
More funny.. I wrote Elek Puskas a nastygram explaining how the canopy lines snapped, the junkheap was cut away, and how it dead centered the Red.
BTW, this was my custom Double Rainbow Cobra 10.
Elek offered me a NEW COBRA at 1/2 price, but only in blue with white alternating.
No thanks, Elek. I did get a custom Cloud Lite, though, in double rainbow, silver top.
Last jump for me was Perris about 2 years ago. No DZ anywhere near here, now.
Anybody seen Scott (Fornification) (Formic Acid) Formby?

Hey thanks for the ad. I've never seen that one before. The only ad I ever remember seeing was only about 2 x 3" in the Parachutist.
