    Has anybody purchased and used any of the production PC's yet??

    Are the improvements enough to justify cost over other PC's currently in use??

    I've seem them in use but never used one myself.

    The ones I've seen in use were all 42s in the 2-5 sec delay range.

    The PC looked solid like no damping or any oscillations what-so-ever.

    They do cost more but dude, they are a bitch to construct! I wanted to copy one and pretty much said forgetaboutit.

    I'd like to try a 46 for go and throws to see the difference and also videos of 38s in the 5-7 sec delay where there is plenty of airspeed but we are still dealing with a "larger" PC.

    Marty is a good guy and knows his stuff. I do not think he would have ventured in such a project without good insights. They are I think 175 bucks but given the work they need the price is IMO very reasonable.

    One thing for certain is that Marty knows how to build PCs...I had a 46 vented that would hesitate like there's no tomorrow. After almost towing it to my end I called Marty and ordered a 46 with no vents, no handles, and the symmetric attachment point. That thing is the bomb, I mean with a good go and throw I open just a hair lower than a PCA. Best PC I've ever had.

    I call bull****.

    and if this is the PC you throwed-and-goed to a tree landing then I have seen video that supports my call

    I land in trees half of my jumps...so what's your point?

    And Sam really even if you had the balls to freefall anything lower than 240, you're still gay with a small cock and a bad breath.

    Wonna have a low pull contest next time we are at BD at that 240S? Wonna play for money? I'm all for it.
