Lighter container

Recommended Posts

GD!

I am curious, what is the lightest container on the market novadays? I love my SWS Fire 2, and now my entire rig weight is 9,85 kg (21.7 lbs), but it has no TSO certificate, so i will need a replacement soon. My previous container was russian parazone status pro, and the weight was exactly 1 kg (2.2 lbs) less, and i would prefer a lighter option for a new one)

I have so many questions....

Why is weight important to you? For BASE jumping I kinda understand since you will have to hike with it (sometimes for hours). For skydiving though...?!

If you want to cut weight from you future rig, forget about stuff like spacer foam, hip/chest rings, Cordura and you'll probably save about 6-700 grams. 

If the weight is the only factor you are looking at, the undisputed world champion of light weight rigs is a Power Racer. I believe the smallest I ever saw was 275/275 and it was like 6.5 kg with canopies...
