Yoshi 0 #32 March 11, 2003 I suppose we could have huh??? well sorry to clutter it up even more with this appology:):):)\ back to the matter at hand... new canopies... so kelly and anyone else out there for that matter.. who wants to design build and jump a new canopy (with a tirsh sp? rig of course?)

I think it would be fun... me and my buddy eddie were going a whild back. i thought it would of been fun. we were going to build a crossed braced tri cell (funny enough, before germain had his idea out for public ). i was talking to my buddy at PISA, now aerodyne, dominic, and then we got caught up with our dumb 4 way team, and said screw it. maybe this season we could build one kevin.later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 0 #34 March 11, 2003 It would be fun, but the only real problem I see is the cost of the material.. not buying in bulk and where would we even go?? would a canopy manufacturer sell just some zp... or do you want to be daring and make a f-111 ?!?!?:) -yoshi_________________________________________ this space for rent.

Canuck 0 #36 March 12, 2003 And again....what does this have to do with Brian's new canopy...A cool thread idea, but lets make it its own so people like me don't keep opening this one hoping for some insight on the SenseiCauck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhino 0 #40 March 16, 2003 I've heard a couple of people talk about getting this canopy.. Is it in production already? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #41 March 16, 2003 Its still in prototype mode Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhino 0 #42 March 16, 2003 Weird... I've heard two people say it is in production.. WTF? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #43 March 16, 2003 From March 6th: Quote- The Sensei is still in testing stages. - Brian Germain and Mike Swanson are THE test jumpers. - There have been 4 prototypes to date (by my count; don't quote me). Brian built a new prototype just before the Red Bull swooping thing at Z-Hills a week or two ago. - We have not published an OFFICIAL release date or even mentioned how soon it might be released, yet (stay tuned). Brian is VERY particular about releasing canopies or calling a canopy ready for production. - We are working very hard to get the Sensei ready for release and production, so bear with us.
