  1. i couldn't agree with you more! I know pilotdave has spoken about getting it back online but nothing is coming of it! There are plenty of people on here who are more than willing to help get it back online! Why isnt Dave taking this on board and using the services fellow skydivers are offering! It looks like people are being kinda stubborn here, after all who owns all the footage? Skydiving movies is made up from all of our media! SDM would be nothing with out us! Stop hogging it and let the community have it back. There's plenty of people willing to work with you to sort it out! Actions speak louder than words!! "You only live once"

  5. I know exactly what you mean. I took delivery of my 140 Pilot a few weeks ago. As soon as i got it, of course i had to take it out the bag to take a look at the canopy. This was also my first new canopy. Putting it back in was a big problem. It took me way over an hour to get the whole pack job done when usually i can pack in 10 minutes. I paid a packer to pack it for the first 4/5 jumps. Then started to pack it my self after watching his technique. And its getting just as easier to pack as it has been to pack past canopys that havent been so new. Id say, how ever long it takes you pack, try and pack your self as much as possible this way once you've mastered packing a new canopy, thats it!! Watch other packers pack and try new bagging techiques out, hands on experience and packing is my advice! Chris "You only live once"

    This is my first BRAND NEW Rig and boy was i excited when it arrived! I ordered the Rig with pretty much all the extra options that were available. Ok it was pricey, but i was convinced the money would be well worth it! I am extremly impressed with the build quality and attention to detail. Ive looked at every CM over and over again and i just admire the amount of work and time that has gone into making this superb piece of kit. Not a single flaw! I ordered the Lightening Split design (3 Colours) and it makes the rig look out of this world! How many rig Companys do you know that offer you such a varied option in designs when ordering? I ordered the Magnetic Riser covers which i had never seen in the flesh previous to ordering, and i love how they function and they overall design! I also got the 3D Spacer Foam which really does add to the comfort! Something which i didnt have with my old TearDrop SF!! I then got all the usual Extras, Hip Rings, One Piece Leg Straps, Collapesable PC, Hook Knife Built in. I also got some custom embroidery on one of the ring covers, and it looks awesome!! Im pretty much over whelmed with what i have recieved, and is almost too good to jump! I love it, i really think its the Rolls Royce of all Rigs. Would i recomend this rig to others, hell yea!! BTW, it fits like a glove!!! It couldnt have been more on the Mark! Thanks UPT!!
  7. Hey all, Some very good and interesting information. Its nice to explore and see what peoples thoughts are. I think the Magellan canopy certainly worth thinking about. Without a doubt il make arrangements to test jump one, and see what its like for myself! Thanks for all your input everyone!! Blue Skies , Chris "You only live once"
  8. Hi all, Im just doing some general research on some gear and came across these guys - http://www.skyorder.com.ua/eng . Has anyone ever had any experience with their canopys, if so what are they like, in particular the Magellan? Of course the price looks attractive but is it money well spent? It would be great to hear peoples opinions! Cheers, Blue Skies, Chris "You only live once"
