  1. PLF --> Parachute Landing Fall ;) Keep it in the back of you mind.. it may save your bones one day ~Jeff Monkey Brother #1 http://www.monkeybrothers.ca
  2. Agreed.. Logo = Nice.. But not worth extra $$ -> That translates into jumps! ~Jeff Monkey Brother #1 http://www.monkeybrothers.ca
  3. I agree! Don't rush into it! If you want a 190 then get one! Shop here or talk to other jumpers on the DZ and see whats around. Cant find anything there? There are lots of places on the web that sell gear, just don't settle for the first thing that comes along! Goodluck! ~Jeff Monkey Brother #1 http://www.monkeybrothers.ca
  4. Thanks for the videos guys! Makes the 2' of fresh snow outside kinda melt away ~Jeff Monkey Brother #1 http://www.monkeybrothers.ca
  5. Hey, If its any consolation I jumped a Raven II main for 3 jumps, it blew up on opening, I got it with the rig I bought thrown in ;) Figured I would jump it until it exploded, didnt take long! Then I put a Typhoon 190 in it (Sabre Clone) and it was awesome the difference in the flare, the first landing I even went back up! That was with 60 Square feet less! Ive moved on the an Icarus 169 for the start of this season! Go for the ZP main! With your own rig you can get a demo from any manufacturer that you want! Good luck and Blue Skies! ~Jeff Monkey Brother #1 http://www.monkeybrothers.ca
