My new baby arrived!

Recommended Posts

Hi Chumps and Chumpettes!

My new baby just arrived, didn't get to jump it yet..
Watcha think?
The mind is like a parachute - it only works once it's open.
From the edge you just see more.
... Not every Swooper hooks & not every Hooker swoops ...

Hey, didn't know you were posting here, too! Nice surprise!
Naa, this baby needs power feed, so there's a nice two Paratec canopies going in there.:)

Awesome!!!!! B| Let us know how she flies. :)I LOVE my new wings (despite the packing it in the beginning - per the other thread ;)) I kept telling 'her' that if 'she' wasn't so pretty, I don't know if I could tolerate packing 'her' so early on in our 'relationship'. :D 'She' does look awfully pretty packed though.

ok. I've seen them on a couple of other rigs, and I was wondering...



It means the rig comes cypres ready, not cypres equipped. It's not meant to stay on the rig.

Nice rig By the way.
My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

On my rig, (another new wings that arived a week before Chrisky's), the tag did actually say that it was cypres equiped. It said: "this rig contains a cypres" which woukd seem to indicate to me that it was intended to stay on, as the rig obviously didn't come with a cypres pre installed.

Although I was going to remove the tag anyway, it fell off the first time I packed the main... so this would seem to indicate it was intended to come off or it would have been made of stronger stuff. Equally, if it was intended to stay on it would have been put on a cable housing or somthing where there are no moving parts.

Perhaps choice of wording is simply indicative of a poor use of English.
