Wanted: Line trim chart for Rock Dragon canopy
Hi all,

I'm trying to find a canopy line trim chart for a Rock dragon 288. it was made by Precision for Marta and I've been in contact with both, but so far unsucessful in getting hold of either a line set or a trim chart.

Don't suppose anyone here has an old user manual or trim chart for a rock dragon canopy?

thanks in advance!

Greg..

I own 2 Rock Dragons (including a 288) and I'd love to see a line trim chart if you can lay your hands on one.

If you want I can try to measure my lines and compare with you, and we can try to create an ad hoc chart from those measurements.

OK. Worth a shot! I've got 2 rock dragon 288's. One with a couple of hundred jumps and one that has only done 50ish slider downs.

I'll measure both next time they're unpacked :)

I got the opportunity to unpack one of my rock dragons last night and measured the lines... These measurements are from my newer rock dragon.

A(base) = 153"
A-B = 3"
A-C = 12"
A-D = 23"

UCL = 55"
LCL (to DBS) = 111".

Tom - can you let me know how this compares with yours?

Cheers,

Greg..

Tom - have you had a chance to measure your rock dragon lines?
