Re: [PAINTitBLACK] the PROFILE by Asylum
Ill tell you what little I know as there have only been a couple made and they are changing to taste. Floor plate closing loop, dynamic corners, integrity riser, and I believe the one in the picture had some sort of custom leg straps to reduce weight. The picture shows the model for the feather 260. I think the price for a complete system is something just over 3k but im not positive. I believe that it is single layer cordura, or at least thats what is on mine which is kind of a hybrid between the pro and what became the profile. Containers really look sick, and the feather is an awesome canopy, same design as the seven with low bulk fabric. The rigs themselves come in at a weight of about 3 lbs. I have more pictures but ill ask marty before posting anything.

Re: [hjumper33] the PROFILE by Asylum
cool,

what size do you have?

have you tried to put a Seven in a Profile?
or like if you have a profile sized for a Feather 280 , you think you could get a unvented tarp like to Ace or Mojo 240 or 260 in it?? any opions in that arena?

Re: [PAINTitBLACK] the PROFILE by Asylum
I have a seven 260 but the profile container is SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than mine. These containers are pretty much specific to the feather or similar canopies. I guess it would be the same as cramming another canopy into a razor or hybrid. My seven 260 fits into a container for a 240 pretty easily, but ive heard of people putting feather 260s in d-bags for a 150 9 cell.

They must be expensive - the poor guy in the picture couldn't afford a hat after buying his - he had to Photoshop one onto his head!! Laugh
