steve1 5 #1 March 28, 2002 I'm considering buying another rig, but it has large rings on the harness. I have three sets of risers but they all have the smaller mini-rings. Would this combination work? My guess is yes, but I wanted to make sure. I was also wondering if buying skydiving gear is addictive? I'm working on rig number three and my wife thinks I'm crazy.

steve1 5 #3 March 28, 2002 Jason,Have you got your new Hornet Yet? I'm sure getting anxious. I've been waiting about 4 weeks now for mine. The weather is finally warming up a little here. I may even get some jumps in this weekend after months of waiting to get in the air again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiverek 55 #5 March 28, 2002 Yes, it is gonna work, but only if your large rings have "RW" stamped on them with some number (I do not remember what the number is exactly right now). This basically means that the rings are made to specs and can be safely mixed with mini rings risers.Bart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 558 #6 March 28, 2002 Yes,You can safely install mini-ring risers on a harness with standard-size rings. I have done it for hundreds of jumps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve1 5 #7 March 29, 2002 Jason,I'm not smart enough to figure out how to get my P M mail. But I thought I'd tell you I got my new Hornet in today. YIPPIE!!!! That's what we say here in Montana when we're happy. Just finished putting it together and packing it up. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve1 5 #8 March 29, 2002 Skydiverek,I see you're from Minot. I've probably jumped with you there. Does Tony plan on making any jumps this weekend. If he does, let me know and I'll come over. Last time I was there the plane was down with battery problems. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
