Rig in Chicago for May 16th

[FiveZigen 0]

Hi guys, I am taking a road trip from Denver to Toronto with a stop in Chicago with a good friend of mine on Thursday May 16th. Problem is my rig is in Toronto and I am 5200kms away in BC. Was curious if any one had a rig I could borrow/rent for the day. I fly a Crossfire2 149 currently and am looking for a rig with a 150 or larger canopy. I have a C license.

If any one could help out a fellow jumper or knows some one who may be able to it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Have you called the dropzone which you will be visiting and asked them if they have rental rigs?

I have indeed...$35/jump no day rate. Little bit steep at $59/ jump with the lift ticket. Even picked up the phone and called them to confirm they do not have a day rate.

I can also provide my base rig as colateral for the day.

Bueller?

Supply and demand probably happens for a reason. 59$ a jump doesn't sound to bad about now huh?

You know, there's absolutely nothing wrong with what he did, it's worth trying. I'm not sure why you posted.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Never said there was anything wrong! :)

No it still does, I can wait the day and jump at my home DZ.

I think Chicagoland Skydiving Center has day rates (last I checked it was 80 or 90/day) if thats an option for you.
