Yeah, Cyndi showed me that last night.

When did they start strength testing mains that way? :P

For all those wishing to click through:

This is a JOKE video, not a serious video.

Both are OK, but it's nice to know before hand which is which.

Besides, if one charges $10 for a 30 lb main canopy test, why not charge $20 for a 20 lb test -- people would pay extra to not have their main canopy destoyed! :-)

You can have an old canopy that'll withstand a bunch more jumps, but the worn center top skin at the back will rip if you 30 lb test it.
