shropshire 0 #2 November 2, 2009 Yeap, I find most of my sucessful skydives have been done with a parachute and a harness... way more reliable than anything thing else that I have considered using (.)Y(.)

No, It's gotta be the Jerry Rig and the Air Brake "Chute" There are many brands with many different qualities and features. Read up on different manufactures and get to know a rigger that can help you understand the differences. Getting a history lesson from a rigger will also help to understand why certain features were invented. Comfort and safety are important! You can get a rigger to help you with figuring out what MLW is the best for your torso. Once you understand the features, you can make an informed decision on what brand you want to go with for each component. Riggers like beer and cash as payment for their knowledge! Sometimes you can find one that is nice enough to do it for free! ExPeCt ThE uNeXpEcTeD! DoNt MiNd ThE tYpOs, Im LaZy On CoRrEcTiOnS! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
