jonstark 8 #4 November 9, 2010 Last time I got a new parachute it was my first ZP. I ended up throwing it around the room in rage and frustration in the middle of my third attempt to get it into the deployment bag. Short honeymoon THAT day but we're still together. jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heavydude 0 #5 November 9, 2010 I had two glasses of wine and them tried to pack my new ZP when I first got it...big mistake shoulda put on my gym clothes & weightliftin belt, packing a new chute sucks ! Only thing worse is dirt stains on a new canopy IIEE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TiaDanger 0 #6 November 9, 2010 Let us know how your first attempt at packing goes! GAWD, I hated packing mine when it was new... And for the record: the appropriate ranking of cool modes of transportation is jet pack, hover board, transporter, Batmobile, and THEN giant ant.

pinkfairy 0 #11 November 9, 2010 Congratulations! It'll look SO pretty too the first time you see it in the air. Beautiful colors and all. I've gotten so used to mine that when I look up I don't see its absolutely beautiful colors, I see "notamalfunction".Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theonlyski 3 #12 November 9, 2010 My canopy matches my rig (bought together) Red topskin and ribs, yellow bottom skin... Looks like an optimum reserve on an overcast day... I've had people come up asking me what I chopped and where it went.

jim_32766 0 #13 November 9, 2010 Congrats on the new chute. I went that route too, only with a Sabre2 v a Pulse. As many have said - have fun packing. Even with the hybrid ZP and lowP, you'll probably find it much tougher than the old chutes we all trained on when learning to pack. I really struggled the first several pack "attempts" with mine.The meaning of life . . . is to make life have meaning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erdnarob 1 #14 November 9, 2010 Agreed. The Pulse bottom skin material is the same soft fabric than the Optimum reserve. Closed your eyes, touch it and it feels like panties material. Learn from others mistakes, you will never live long enough to make them all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If this is true, then why doesn't PD offer the bottom skin and ribs in either white OR orange? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinkfairy 0 #18 November 10, 2010 I've got gold with some red ribs and cell 1 and 9 red, it looks really nice. Red and yellow so it makes orange is visible, so it's good for safety too.
