krkeenan 0 #16 July 1, 2005 I don't know if they have a download, but if not, call PD and see if they will mail you the publication. Or they may e-mail it. If all fails, speak to Rusty Vest at PD.

CRWCheryl 0 #17 July 2, 2005 Hey, those new canopies have float AND drive! Great for making wing docks, huh? LOL. You can remove the extra french links when you see the lines don't lay perfectly together when you're packing. That took 50-70 jumps for my new 143.

Remove the links? Are you kidding me? I've probably got less than 50 jumps total on 113's without links and I HATE it! The links stay permanently....

bodypilot90 0 #19 July 3, 2005 ok the links are to change angle of attack? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is from a world-class crwdog. If you want it, I'll send it to you. PM me your address and you'll get it in a few days.

bodypilot90 0 #22 July 6, 2005 you know this is what makes the crw world great, I see way to much of "well i'll be glad to help you but you need to pay me" in the RW world and even the freefailers now. Thanks Billy you are tops in my book Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

faulknerwn 38 #24 July 7, 2005 Quote Lightning 113? Is there such a size? :-) Yep there are a bunch of them out there. Actually some of the CRW teams these days are using Lightning 106's! W Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Calle 0 #25 July 7, 2005 Well, I can see why they downsize, but is that standard sizes? Can everybody order those, or just is it just for the sponsored teams? The smallest lightning on Pd`s homepage is still 126... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
