So often people take the time to complain or bitch, especially on dropzone.com, about a certain product company or person. I think the same effort should be put forth to commend someone. Today I received my custom freefly pants from Julio with Liquid Sky. They are Perfectly brilliant. Unbelievable quality, perfect fit and way cooler then I could have possibly hoped for. The custom design was again brilliant and exactly what I wanted. Julio went above and beyond my expectations both in quality and more importantly customer service. Julio's pants truly show a real love of the sport. And get this!....from the time we completed specs on my custom design to the time they reached my front door was exactly 4 days THAT"S RIGHT FOUR DAYS...not four months like with my last freefly pants......Liquid sky is a true anomaly in today's greed driven "you're lucky to be getting our product at all" business mentality.

I'm building a rig and have decided on a 190 main based on my exit weight and experience. Trouble is there are so many options as to which 190 to buy. I have only jumped a Sabre 2 and a Triathlon and I like the 9 cell better but there are many other 9 cells available. I'm not sure, due to my in-experience, which would be the right choice for me. And quite honestly I don't know the difference between a Diablo and a Stilletto. At this point in my skydiving career I am ready to get an education on the pros and cons of the various 190 canopies available today. I would like to make an informed, wise purchase rather then just grabbing the best deal out there. Would anybody be interested in giving me a quick synopsis of how to make the RIGHT choice.

I took alot of you what you guys had to say to heart and I just told my rig that I was going to learn to pack it regardless of what it thought....then I realized that my canopy was not an animated being and that I should probably stop talking to it and just pack it..............Tattoo Tom ...............................

Hi I am one pack job away from my A-License but I am totally incapable of grasping the whole concept for some reason.....I have been shown countless times by many at my DZ including my instuctors and even one of the senior riggers I understand the conceprt while watching "them "pack...and I have gotten as far as stowing my brakes and walking the lines...but that's where my brain seems to loose it capacity for reason I feel like I'm holding and looking at a jumbled mass of nylon....The owner of the DZ allowed me to borrow a student rig and I brought it home along with the "pack like a pro Video but alas I am still confused......There is a "big boogie" this weekend and I was hoping to have my A-license for the fun....my skydiving skills and canopy skills are fine I have been told by my instuctors and coaches that I am doing quite well....and have everything on my card signed off except packing .....they have all been very patient with me But I ca'nt put it off anymore I must learn to pack!!! ..... this not being able to pack mode I'm in is really upsetting me as you can imagine ...ANY ADVISE?.....Thanks Tom ...............................
