airtimebabe24 0 #1 July 21, 2006 Hey guys! Just wanted to tell you all.... I took alittle detour from my disneyworld vaca and visited the Performance Designs Factory in DeLand, FLA. I loved it! i saw how all the chutes are made, and sewn, and cut, and everything! not in that order of course, but it was amazing to see the step by step process of the parachute! Thanks to Rachel @ PD factory!"The most wasted day of all is that upon which we have not laughed..." Nicholas Chamfort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only whuffo's call them "chutes" "We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things."
