first freeflying forrays- need gear help

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

i'm newly qualifed Cat 8 and a penniless student. i bought an old old leather zerox container with a fury 220 main cos it flys nice and was super cheap. obviously there is no way i can freely this kit!!!

i was wondering if there were any container types that i could switch with mine that would be big enough (ie fit my 220+ 190 reserve) and cheap enough (remembering the poor student thing) but would also be Free Fly friendly? i'm not fussed if its new or pretty just safe and functional.

I've heard a teardrop classic is a possibility...????

I am desperate to get started freeflying any advice or help would be greatly appreciated...

Cheers

An older Atom size 1 would also work if you can find one. Look for tucktabs on the risers, good main pin and bridle protection, BOC deployment, and maybe add a crw flap to prevent the reserve flap opening when flying head-up.

Older javelins, vectors etc can be used for freeflying after some mods. Did you ask a rigger about modding your zerox?

ciel bleu,
Saskia
