NickDG 23 #1 September 9, 2008 I've nothing to do with this, I just came across it while looking at alternative places to sell stuff besides Fleecebay. This guy has 69 episodes of "Ripcord" on DVDs for a decent price . . . http://www.ioffer.com/i/RIPCORD-NEAR-COMPLETE-SERIES-DVD-1961-SKYDIVING-SHOW-28099191 NickD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites NickDG 23 #2 September 9, 2008 And this would be a neat avatar if anyone wants it (see attachment). Also here's a full episode list, the seller is short seven shows. Some of these titles are amusing . . .

I had always heard about the series but had never seen any of the episodes. I was too young when the series was running and no one I knew ever had any around. A good deal as far as I'm concerned. The series is really quite good. The story lines are decent, and there are no more goofy things in them than in modern movies I've seen that included skydiving. What I think is neat about the series is that it shows skydiving being used for adventure, and for doing good, not just as a yee-haw sport.

Quality on some leaves a lot to be desired, but considered that all the original masters were lost we are lucky to have these copies. Here is the basic story line in the 10 episodes I have watched so far: Skydivers are good guys and wear white. Skydivers ike to fight. Skydivers always win. Skydivers always get the girls.
