ladyskydiver 0 #3 December 7, 2002 Easiest way to tell...weigh yourself without the rig on. Put the rig on and weigh yourself again. Difference would be the weight of the rig.Life is short!

Watcher 0 #5 December 8, 2002 Depends on the size of the container. A j7 is gonna weight a hell of a lot (25-30 lbs) But my Javelin RS only weighs about 13-14 lbs. And that is with Stainless steal hardware. Smaller canopies = lighter rig. Jonathan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did this today....i weighed myself without shoes, rig or helmet....and with all three....exactly 25 pounds....I fly a Mirage with a Sabre 190 and a Raven-M 181 reserve..... ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
