Voodoo Curv rig size and Pilot ZPX pack volume

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Im looking into buying a new Voodoo Curv and would like to buy a Pilot ZPX 188 as my first main.

Due to the low pack volume of the Pilot ZPX, does anyone know if the ZPX will fit into a Vc3 container?

I have already reviewed the Curv volume chart and it compares the ZPX to bigger volume canopies w/o zpx fabric that, in reality, would compare to the Pilot ZP model.

Any info would help guys!

What was your wing loading on the 168zpx? and how many jumps did you have when you started flying it?


FYI I have 40 jumps; I'm currently on a 190 Silhouette in a student rig.. @1.21WL when i started flying it. I have dropped 10 pounds since and fly @1.15WL now. I plan on staying <195lbs/ 1.25 WL so that i can fly a 168zpx once my rig comes in.. in about 5 months??? Really thinking of getting the Vc3...
