jkwon 0 #1 October 4, 2004 So sad...this weekend I was packing my almost new <50 jumps Sabre2 and my friends see a few huge tears in the far right two cells on the top skin of my canopy. And a few other small tears. :( My rigger couldn't figure out what the cause of the tears were. Definitely not line burns, not a snag. So we there is no diagnosis. I REALLY LOVE my canopy and then this happens and I can't even jump it. Alright I'm done now.--joe HISPA #69 The Best Band in the WORLD!!!

PhreeZone 15 #4 October 4, 2004 Hehehe... and never hear from them after placing an order on where your canopy is? Odds are it got snagged packing, walking in, or if it was left out for more then about 10 minutes unatteneded on the ground open... all bets are off.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jkwon 0 #6 October 4, 2004 QuoteAny grommets on you gear with exposed lips or with nicks and burs? Never snagged or stepped on the canopy, never packed it into grommets never any of that kind of stuff. Always packed indoors, never landed off, never left unpacked at the DZ. Afterall it's only 2 months old. *SNIFF*--joe HISPA #69 The Best Band in the WORLD!!! The new full length album "See What You Can Find" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #7 October 4, 2004 So you've never walked away from it at all while its spread out on the ground? I've seen kids and pets tear canopies apart before when no one was looking.

If I ever walk away from it it'll be to go straighten my risers on my container. I'm rather careful about my canopy. It'll get straightened out as soon as we figure out what did the tearing.
