  1. I have an I4 Icon with spacer foam and have found it to be very comfortable. and would definately purchase again.
  2. Mark4 The phenomena you described and supplied pics for happened several times on my Javelin while placing/removing unpacked from gear bag. I have never had this problem with my Icon although I have only put it in gear bag unpacked maybe 10 times. Another reason for a gear check before use.
  3. I have been using them for about 6 months on both of my rigs with no problems and also have not had to change any of them out. Some of the people at the DZ are swithcing to them now. Purchased them from T at Unfeathered.com
  4. I have a Pilot 150 that I started to psyco pack after about 5 pro pack jobs that were very difficult to bag. It definately goes in the bag better and I can tell no difference on openings. All the openings have been sweet.
  5. Purchase at set Silibands size 1 and install them on the the bag at the loose stows. These babies are great
  6. Did not demo either canopy. Recently purchased a new Pilot 140 after I have been jumping a Sabre 150 for a few years. I love it. The slow openings are welcome after a few "too rapid" on the Sabre. Tiptoe landings at 170lb out the door. Packing is not easy with the slick material.
  7. Possibly it was and then possibly it was not. A suit can be built in one day by a skilled seamstress that has fabricated suits for 20 years and Priority shipping is very quick.
  8. Filed a complaint with the Wisconsin BBB
  9. Sounds like a good start. Please keep me informed of the progress you make. I paid with a check.
  10. I am having the same problem with my ZuteSute order. I ordered mine at a cost of $328 bucks prepaid at the first of September. No suit, and unable to contact Jennifer Martin the owner. I am peeved.

    Astra

    I have had my Astra for 6 years now. I have never had a malfunction but it has never misfired. I like the fact that in 6 more years I will not have to buy a new one. In six years the only amount of money I have spent on maintenance is $45.00! If I owned a cypress I would be out at least $275.00 by now and looking to replace it in 6 more years.
