Demoing from Icarus..

[Psychonaut 0]

I've demo'd from PD and Aerodyne, which you go directly through them. You pay them they send it to you for the week or two etc. But all I can gather about Icarus is that they point you towards dealers, I'm not reading anywhere being able to go through them?

Anybody have any input on this?

I only see two negative things about this.

1) What if you're not in Eloy, or at SDC or any of the other listed dealers but rather a smaller dz which might be the only one close to you.

2) Most DZ's to demo a canopy will charge you by the day and that can add up quickly; PD charges $95 last I checked and Aerodyne something like $70.. You would be paying that much with just two days from the DZ.

Demos are for TWO WEEKENDS, not a day. Icarus (Para-Concepts at SDC) does the same.

Alright cool, so the dealers do the same thing that PD or Aerodyne do themselves.

Actually Pare-Concepts is the US service center and a Demo center. Some dealers have demos, but not all. Para-concepts handles demos for Icarus in the US.
