Mastercrafts

[wolf man]

I'm currently watching Mastercrafts on the Yesterday channel. I'd like to know what sort of parachute are they using as a shelter, and where can I get one from.

is that the show with monty don presenting? i remember him doing a show on 6 different mastercrafts was fascinating but i dont remember any parachutes? :S

That's the one, it's currently focussing on green crafts

ah nice one was a superb show wish there was a second series as they only covered 6 skills. would have liked to see leatherwork and bladesmithing

Check out the for sale items in the forum, I'm sure there is a parachute canopy for sale or swap.

These people had some green ones last year but they only seem to have white now:

Great show. Don't remember the parachute.

They come up on here and on eBay often enough.

I know the parachute you mean.
I met the guy who put it up and it was a standard parachute but he modded it to make it shed water better and he is very good at setting it up too.
