  1. I can confirm it is a 155. I haven't looked for a serial yet but yes the logo patch is a Chuteshop 155. Now aren't there three types of line, micon dacron and spretra? Or am I making one of those up based on other words? Ha. Then I know there's 5xx and 8xx and whatnot.. Why did I get this canopy? Why not, I got a steal on it from my dzo. Lines are good as new on it as well
  2. Infinity I33, main canopy is a 'Chute Shop' ZP 155 sqft. What are suggested sized rubber bands I use, small 3/8" x 1 1/4" or large 3/8" x 2"? I'm guessing stowing either double or single is going to come up? Three closing single then the rest double or? Thanks guys
  3. In addition, does anyone have any pictures of them on? Thanks guys
  4. Anyone have any detailed information about this? I've heard about it through the grapevine but can't really find any substantial details..
  5. Does the foam liner deteriorate at all?
  6. You should probably pull a little higher than 3.5 if you don't even have your A license..? Get a coach and jump with him, he'll most likely be able to help you with your exits and your spin problem
  7. Anyone have it uploaded to share with me? Lost it on the old hdd..
  8. Figured it out, there was a weird gap between my old temp membership and my new membership. I'll be getting the oct isse
  9. How about this, would you guys suggest the 'z's with the foam or would the other curv glasses without the foam work? I guess that's only if they fit well which is a long shot when ordering online..
  10. I gotcha, I was thinking of it backwards for some reason. Sorry to hijack your thread!
  11. I might be thinking of this backward.. So basically since belly has more relative wind, the hill isn't as long? Whereas ff's will have more forward movement on the hill?
  12. Was wondering if I could get some input on the different lens color options for CurvZ glasses.. In particular I'm looking at either jet blue or red and wondered if anyone had any input on either of these concerning vision, etc..
  13. Pardon my asking, but I just have never been exactly sure on how to load the plane. Is the general idea you're stating here that freefliers have less of a hill than someone on their belly would? When I was starting, I always figued freefliers out before belly just because of the fall rate but obviously that's wrong
  14. That's all I needed to hear Thanks guys
  15. You don't think it'd be a smart choice? Not challenging you, just trying to figure out..!
  16. What would you think about a Nitro 150? As a refresher I'm only 135lb on the ground. Flew Sabre2 150's with no problems; a little boring but from what I've read the Nitro isn't too much more aggressive
  17. I'm sure if anyone wanted to contact Doug he would be more than willing to do something about this misconception. He's a real cool guy and wouldn't do anything similar to skyride..
  18. Is anyone able to post a small table or some sorts with some general guidelines? __knots = ~__seconds etc..
  19. I think I've found a good deal on a spectre and that's what I'm going with.. And I'm fine on a sabre2 at 1.0 even a little greater than 1.0. It's what I used all off AFF downsizing until I was at the 1.0 mark
  20. Awesome, that keeps my options open definitely
