Who Made This Canopy?

Recommended Posts

Hi captain,

Looks like a canopy made by Jim Lowe when he worked for Paragear back in the early to mid 70's.



I doubt it. I do not know about every Para-Foil that Jim & Gary Lewis built after hours at Para-Gear, but to the best of my knowledge, all of those canopies were either white/blue or red/white/blue. But, then again, they may have made something that I am not aware of.

PS) Just to ad: All of the Para-Foils that Jim & Gary built had the 'A' lines going to the front riser & the "B' and 'C' and 'D' lines all were cascaded and went to the rear riser.

Jerry,

I don't remember anything about what he made with others including Gary but the one he jumped and told me "he" made was the same color in the photos here.
