crazydiver 0 #1 March 7, 2005 I jumped my new samurai 105 signature series this weekend and it was great. I like it even more than my jedei 120 that I was jumping before. Brian Germain is a genius. I dont know why big air sports isn't more popular than they are! Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell I almost feel like I got a new Sam the other week. I had to chop mine the otehr weekend over the woods and did not recover it till the next morning about 10am. Nasty spinning function laid out on my back. I was ready to take the whole day off. Only thing was drying it out by hanging it up for a number of days then gave anotehr good inspection. Need to get new Freebag and PC but hell that is not the really spendy part... At least I found it.. The Sam is a great canopy and I am looking forward to getting it back in the air!!

Some of them you can look at your canopy and tell, but since it is unmarked...most likely its a signature series. To whomever said it...i've never heard that people think that if its not from pd is shit...for samurais...the ones that are highly sought after by most samurai pilots are the signature series.

I might add that they all reside in Infinity containers... GraficOGraficO "A Mind is a terrible thing to taste."
