SkydiveMonkey 0 #1 April 22, 2002 Does ZP material get porous (sp?) over time? If so, roughly how long does it start to become porous? When you participate in sporting events, its not whether you win or you're loose, its how drunk you get. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #2 April 23, 2002 Yes, all ZP fabric used in parachutes eventually gets more porous. How soon that happens varies wildly based upon where you jump and how you treat your main. People who jump in the dessert and pack outdoors will get a very short usable "true ZP" life out of their mains. Those who jump in nice areas and land in grass, then pack indoors on carpet or something will get a much longer life.ChuckMy webpage HERE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
