mraviation1 0 #1 January 21, 2003 I am wondering if anyone can help me find a new line set for my Heatwave 150. I have heard you can have riggers make them, But I am not sure how accurate this would be. Any input will be apperciaited Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 January 21, 2003 Drop Ned a line over at PISA, [email]Ned@pisa.co.za[email] and ask him, I bet they'll have one to sale ya.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rdutch 0 #3 January 22, 2003 Im sure you can get your canopy relined from the maker. I just relined my canopy myself, (From a line set purchased from the manufacturer) and I can tell you it is a lot of work. I also had a master rigger help me. Its a lot easier for you to send it in. I would have done that but I bought the canopy used and it came with a line set. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #4 January 22, 2003 Yes, shipping a canopy to the manufacturer is the best way. A close second is asking your friendly local rigger to install a factory line kit. Asking him to build a complete line kit starting with just a trim chart and a spool of line is over the head of most field riggers. Stating from scratch works fine on large rectangular canopies. I have built line kits for a bunch of Sabres and Triathlons starting with just a trimchart and a spool of line, but as canopies get smaller and more complicated and tolerances get tighter, I prefer to install line kits supplied by the factory. For example: last year I installed factory line kits on a Triathlon, a couple of Sabres, three Stilettos and a bunch of SET 400s. Right now I am waiting for PISA to ship me a Heatwave line kit.

bodypilot90 0 #5 February 5, 2003 so is it better to send it back and have to done at the factory or just as good to have the local rigger do a line set supplied by the factory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albatross 0 #6 February 5, 2003 I really liked the service of PD. They did a full inspection and then did some little repairs and sent it back in time for my next training weekend.Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TitaniumLegs 8 #8 February 6, 2003 They did one for me in about a week and a half. It depends on the season and their workload. If you ask Kolla really nicely, she may let you rent a demo while yours is in. Last I checked, $30 for two weeks. Peter (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me.
