It may be a Starlite system from Strong Ent. Hard to tell. Mick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,146 #3 August 14, 2006 It is hard to tell. I didn't know that there was a conventional version of the Starlite (I had a tandem, and it definitely wasn't like the crossbow, with a separable reserve -- it was an integrated piggyback). Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

peckerhead 0 #6 August 16, 2006 Wasn't the classiflyer built by The Altitude Shop? As I recall it was the predesessor to the Corsair. Also, the Top Secret was a piggyback rig (both main and reserve on the back) hence the name. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
377 21 #7 August 16, 2006 I remember transitioning from awful surplus gear to a TOP SECRET with a PC and round reserve. Paid $125 for it. The jumpers with $$$ were dumping their PCs cheap when the squares starting hitting the market. Finally, painless landings. The guys who made the TOP SECRET had a shop in downtown Vallejo. They were nice to me and did repairs and mods really cheap.2018 marks half a century as a skydiver. Trained by the late Perry Stevens D-51 in 1968.

JerryBaumchen 1,062 #9 August 18, 2006 Hi folks, It started out as R & J Parachute Sales; Ron Tavalero & Jerry Meyers. They were located on the airport at Antioch. Then they changed it to The Altitude Shop, in downtown Vallejo. The gut pack rig was the Rumour; the piggyback was the Top Secret. The Classiflyer came later.

Damn we missed it The shipping price was reasonable, the description was creative "extra's included". The seller got a great price. was the white bag a "diaper" I wonder if a certain gear dealer in oregon would...nope i don't think he would even stoop that low. Can't wait to bid on the canopies R.I.P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
