Been looking at getting a parachute for scout camps and general woodland camping. Seen the ones on endicotts website and they look pretty good. Can anyone expalin in greater detail how their pricing works? i guess if i go for the most expensibe it will be in pretty good shape but i wondered what sort of condition the mid range ones are. Just realised I should have said endicotts.

To be perfectly honest, the best thing you can do is to call them and speak to Kevin Endicott or Paul. They are so helpful and will give you a 100% honest appraisal of what they have in stock.

Loads of others on here will confirm my feeling that they are 100% genuine and won't sell you rubbish.

To be honest, their pricing is pretty competitive anyway but I have managed to secure a few bob off for my Air Cadet unit in the past. Once again, the service is so good, I think it's worth paying a little bit for.

Last time I was speaking to Kev about his 'chutes he mentioned the South African ones were less hacked up than the British, still the same ripstop quality too. He'll do you a good deal on paracord too to rig it up with.

When it comes to surplus I always try to get the best grade possible, having Kev look through his stock and sort you a good one out is always a bonus.

Endicotts' 'Super+' grade is virtually brand new in my experience.

We (the NIBA) bought a Parachute of Endicotts a few months ago. Quality and service were first rate as always. Give Kevin a ring and he'll go through everything with you.
