I have about 35 jumps and want to buy a rig. what is suggested, buy a new one or not? and How about canopy sizes, up till now I have jumped a Saber 210 should I think about going straight to a 170 or should I start off with a 190.Headdown180 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 14 #2 December 31, 2006 The usual questions first... how much do you weight, how often do you jump, what are your goals of your canopy? Also anything extra that needs to be taken into consideration like previous injuries or a need to have soft openings?Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
