crwslut 0 #28 March 22, 2006 Check http://www.performancedesigns.com/store.asp They can get you an L-143, and they can even make it to your specifications! All kidding aside, I sometimes wonder why we CRWDawgs can't seem to buy new Lightnings - we just pass around the old ones. I worry that maybe if we don't buy some NEW Lightnings from time to time, that P.D. might stop offering them!What could possibly go wrong? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you should buy a new one and pass it on to me at a great discount after a few jumps. Kevin====================== Seasons don't fear the Reaper, nor do the Wind, the Sun, or the Rain...

plastic 0 #30 March 22, 2006 The main problem is, you get a group or team all jumping lightnings with 300+ jumps on them (3000+ for some people i guess) and you buy a new one and jump with them it is like flying a hot air balloon in relative terms. Also i guess crw dogs are just tight fisted with money. plastic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #34 April 23, 2006 Quote There are a few jumpers who have whoreded the canopies for themselves and never jump them. I'm not going to name any names but they know who they are. The ones that I know that have extra Lightnings are the ones who keep them handy to give newcomers a chance to jump Lightnings on their crw jumps. The others may be competition jumpers who prefer the small ones for rotations, and the appropriate size for the big way records, for example..."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was beginning to feel a plateau and a blah for the sport in general and those two last weekend totally revived the ZEST I have for the sport and our new aspirations for CRW. Sometimes it takes people or a situation to revive that within you.... _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 2 #46 September 4, 2006 Owkay. So, yeah, all Lightnings are PD?!? The questions to ask would be, is it rotation trim or sequential, fabric reinforcement on top or not, tailpocket or not, ZP/F111/hybrid fabric (well all L126's are ZP anyway), ... ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anacrew2006 0 #49 September 4, 2006 Actually, there are three type of lightning, demo (not recommended for Crew formation, because is entirely low porosity fabric), Zero P top skin (Top skin is reinforce, and low porosity in bottom skin) or PS (top and bottom skins are reinforced - best choice for Crew Formation).
