J0nathan 0 #10 March 7, 2012 k so this time serious XD container: so wings custom container black with trimtape red and pinstripes b and c red aswell and pinstripe 7 red. rsl on the container,spacefoam,articulated, freefly handle , collapsible pilote chute reserve : smart reserve 160 AAD: none yet but probably vigil 2 main: sabre 2 150 , so i know i made a post about which canopy size to choose and most people advised me to get a 170, but i sat together with my instructores and in the end we came to the conclusion that a 150 is ok (getting ready for shitstorm ) XD so thanks again for all the help in choosing the different parts of the rig :) blue skies EDIT: and i allready have a Gopro XD, but i bought it before i started skydiving, for scubadiving...btw i noticed that quite a lot of skydivers also scubadive...

tmccann 1 #12 March 8, 2012 I wish you excellent weather and a real long build time, so you can put a whole lotta jumps on a rented/borrowed 170 before your rig shows up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That set up sounds similar to my 1st rig set up, MR150, and a Hornet 150 in an onl Javelin J1. Went from a 230 Skymaster to the 150 that was a fun and steep learning curve. Spain (like here) has a different mindset to downsizing compared to the USA. Stay safe and try not to be a Dick under canopyYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?
