Nitro Rigging Tarpus
Looking at a Tarpus from Nitro Rigging, of course don't know a whole lot about them. They went through different tests based off different line ideas, but that's over and they have it straightened out. Other than that, anybody jump one, know anything about them, or recommend one? It'd mostly be jumped for higher sd or anything su. thanks

You might have some luck over on the BASE Board; several people there have jumped them (including the guy that designed them).
