kkeenan 13 #1 November 9, 2008 Just sitting and wondering if all skydivers use pullup cords as much as I do. Does anyone else have anything in their home that has either been repaired with a pullup cord or engineered completely from pullup cords ?

skybytch 259 #2 November 9, 2008 The "handles" on the cabinets above the fridge both say Performance Designs. And there are always at least two or three attaching various things to my pack when hiking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gearless_chris 1 #4 November 9, 2008 I know a rigger that used them to hang his dryer vent, I replaced them with spectra."If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeJD 0 #22 November 12, 2008 Pullups are too precious to leave at home - I have a hard enough time finding mine at the DZ - but they have come in handy over the years for: Emergency bootie repair on run-in. Emergency plane door securer on run-in. Emergency helmet elastic replacement on run-in. Never mind your towel - you should always know where your pullup is!
