Forgive me if I seem a bit skeptical about this, but while surfing around Ebay I saw this "skydiving parachute" for sale (see attached link) and it just seemed a little fishy.

There's no mention of what canopy is inside (if there even is one) and it looks like the seller just copied the description from CR's website. The shrivel flap tuck tab isn't even tucked in in the pictures. If this was legitimate, I can only assume this person would have tried to sell this on BLiNC or DZ.com.

I just wanted to share this incase anyone has had a rig like this stolen recently.

BASE 837

That rig was built in late 2000 and belonged to Bud Conner. He may have sold it to someone or hocked it to that pawn shop but better safe than sorry.

We will forward this thread to him but someone may have a more current addy. If he willingly parted with it that's one thing, but there is chance that he didn't.


Thanks
