    The material a canopy is made of does not determine how well they will fly. It will make a difference on how long they will fly well. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Ask your brother and his wife. Sit down, buy him a beer and tell him your concerns. He is in a much better position to help then any of us on the net. What ever you choose, stay safe and remember, this is recreation. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    His name was Eddy L. at Perris in 1978. He had a hook knife mounted on his main lift web and tied with 3/4 foot piece of flat braid. It came out during freefall and was trailing behind him. It trapped his main on deployment and that mess trapped his reserve. If you are worried about dropping your hook knife carry 2 or 3 or 4, but don't tie them to you or your rig.

    I know of at least on fatality caused by having the hook knife tied on with a lanyard. Do not tie anything to you or your rig! Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Keith, I believe ISO 9100 is a method of doing busness, not of testing canopies. Sparky PS: I would go with the PD. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

    Make sure you have something other than a "Zak" knife. Put it where you can reach it with easily with either hand. Remember, you cannot bend over while hanging in a harness. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
