  6. Porbably in Finland you have different custom rules.. A friend of mine ordered 2 canopies from US (reserve-main) and one of his friend from US send them to Greece as a "Used skydiving equipment-Gift" My friend called to pay 30% of the value and he still waiting the canopies(4 months in Greek customs)!!!!!!! I am fool?? I am still waiting my rig from US (2 months)with the same procedure as above!!! You still believe that i am fool???

  12. So....do you mean that the cutaway system is very important in some situations,right? I want to buy a camera helmet and i didn't know the reason of this system. If i understood good....the cutaway system release the helmet from your head right?
  13. Does anybody knows why the camera helmets "must" have a cutaway system?? And how important is it?
  14. File Antoni asxoliste poli me kapoin pou den sas exei kanei tipota kai den exei pei to paramikro gia esas, oute kai gia tin zoni.Ta ipolipa tha ta deis sto PM sou.
  15. No...i don't want to buy a used canopy.i want a new one and probably i will buy a sabre 2 150.
  16. The notion of someone with 38 jumps telling someone with 2900 jumps they don't love the sport enough is ridiculous. Humility is the biggest safety gear you will ever get in this sport, think about that one please. When i posted this thread i ask for opinion and ADVICE.....Do anybody know the word ADVICE??????? and i get....nothing more than a lot of abuses!!!My instructor has told me a few days before that the skydivers are very SNOB,and i said why you telling me that?Now i think i understand. Thanks folks!!!you are very kind!
  17. xa xa!Nice. I don't have the money like you have probably but i love this sport more than you...34 in the sport and only 2900 IN FLORIDA!!!!
  18. now the guy asked for advice, got shit and flames, asks for something more conservative and you guys continue to flame and shit on him... Thank you.I have recieved some messages and i really thanks the guys.I respect their opinions(because of their exerience 4500+ jumps) and probably i will follow their advise.Thanks Guys.I really appreciate it!
  19. Hi!I am from Greece. But if everybody says that i am crazy and probably dead if i will buy this canopy....what do you thing for a Sabre 2 135 or 150?
  20. Hi Amanda.! In my country the skydiving isn't so popular..and we have only one DZ.I know only 20 persons in the DZ and thats all.In 0ne year on the sport (5 months jumping) I never had seen another person except these 20 known persons.Thats why i told you i don't have the money to downsize 2-3 times because we don't have people to buy these canopies.I will give you an example.One guy has 300+ jumps c-licence and he can't do a proper landing(on his feet!!)This guy will never buy a smaller canopy.Is a stiletto 150 smarter choice?I love how the stiletto flies.my Aff instructor has an 97 i think stiletto an i love it.I know the dangerous...
  21. I don't want to argue with someone.!I just ask for your opinion.thats all.Anyway i will buy this canopy.Thanks for your responce.
  22. Hi there! I need your opinion-advice for my first new canopy. Here is the story. i have 38 jumps and i want to buy a PD STILETTO 120. I don't have the money to buy one canopy and then to downsize to another...etc,so i need to buy one canopy to keep it at least 500+ jumps. I have jumped 280,250 PD,170 sabre 2 and i have the skills to fly a Stiletto 120.(I think) All my landings were perfect.So please tell me your opinion because all my friends said to me that i am crazy! Thank you for your time.
