I have a 17year old rig with a Cypres 1 still in it, all with only about 50 jumps on it. I was recently given this by a friend who used to jump with me back in 2000/2001 but decided the sport wasn't for him and stored all his gear in a cupboard until I persuaded him to let me have it a few months ago. I'll be taking it to Langar, UK, in the next couple of months to have it fully checked out by a rigger and expecting that the lines at least would have to be replaced. Now it seems I'm in for a little additional cost after reading these posts. Better safe than sorry though.
