Macaulay 0 #3 July 10, 2001 I need to get a job so I can save up and get me one of those. My Racer Elite is crazy comfy, but I need something that's more freefly friendly. Yesterday, I transitioned from head down to stand, and my right riser straps somehow came all the way out and got under my arm. I was at eight grand and just had to get a little unstable while I put everything back, so it wasn't too big of a deal. However, had it happened at the bottom, I would have had one fucked up skydive.- Macaulay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Macaulay 0 #5 July 10, 2001 Spectre.- Macaulay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mouth 0 #6 July 10, 2001 A spectre will give you a soft opening but will also take 700-1000 ft to open. It flies really good and I enjoy it but I worry about low pulls...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skreamer 1 #7 July 10, 2001 I got my new Wings last week (actually it was the main reason I went to Florida). And it is really comfortable. I took the pull-out pud handle option on the BOC and I find it much better than a toggle or hackey. Sits really firmly and is safe for freeflying. BTW I got Hornet and Tempo 150's and am really happy with how well the Hornet flies.Did you take the extra padding option on the back? I did, and it makes the container even more comfortable./s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
