Pulse lines - help needed quick!

[T_P 0]

Hi there. Just bought a pulse whilst in the us and about to fly back to the uk with it. I asked the person at PD whether it would fit in my container and was told it would. Just took it out of the bag and realise that it has really thick lines - is the Pulse only shipped with one type of lines, or can you go for optional microlines. If so I think I have the wrong lines and it wont fit in my container after all.

Help me if you can!

The demo I jumped had vectran lines, not microline, I like vectran better and it's not much thicker than microline anyway. A Pulse packs up really small because of the fabric used for the ribs (same fabric as the Optimum uses).

Vectran is the only option.

If you are sure, which it sounds like you are, that is very helpful. Thanks. Then I'm sure it should pack into my container as the chap who recommended it has personally packed it into an identical container.

Best.

I doubt if you'll have a problem. I found it very easy to stuff into a bag that a full zp main (300 jumps) required some effort for. And only Vectran lines are used (as stated above).

Tried a pulse demo at skyfest and loved it. Felt like I could have packed my helmet in with the canopy and still had room left over. I wouldn't worry about the lines.

Now I'm worrying about your helmet. Did you see it lately?
