Spizzzarko 0 #1 November 20, 2006 If you are going to order an all sail JVX you will probably have to order a bigger container. Attached are some pictures of an attempted pack job of an 89 JVX (all sail) into a Javelin RSK-1. I did not jump it like this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spizzzarko 0 #6 November 20, 2006 1. Yes... "We may be bereaved but we're not SAPS!" 2. I'm letting you all know that it was the "Initial" pack job of that canopy into that bag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elisha 1 #7 November 20, 2006 (Not like I should be concerned with anything related to a JVX at this point other than not getting one), but WTH is this "sail" stuff you speak of? Is it just some different material that the canopy is made from? When I think of a sail, I think of some strange fin sticking up out of the top of the canopy.

Spizzzarko 0 #8 November 20, 2006 Correct. It is just a different material than ZP. It packs up bigger. It is probably not really usefull on canopies othan than competition swooping, or ground launching. It is thicker and more rigid, and it holds up to the UV a little better.

dharma1976 0 #10 November 20, 2006 you and your mooth sail material with a chubby... damn that shit is stiffo Congrats on yoru purchase Dhttp://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

Spizzzarko 0 #11 November 20, 2006 "you and your mooth sail material with a chubby..." Yea it is stiff and highly erotic, possibly even phallic. Packing it is a pain, but it gets ever so slightly easier each time I pack it. Mainly because I am learning more and more how to control the material. It is different than packing the slick PD zp, but it still wants to come undone if you let it just lay on the ground. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spizzzarko 0 #13 November 20, 2006 Man you had me scared with all that stuff you were telling Ryan. Even though I only got one jump on it, I feel that it will be a good canopy. The stock slider needs to go away though. I forgot how much of a pain in the ass it is to have to collapse, roll, stow, and hear that damn thing flapping around back there. It fucks with your vision too. Non RDS sliders suck. I'm looking forward to getting more jumps on it. It does dive out quite a bit like you said, but the thing I noticed was that it held it's speed a little longer than the velocity. I came out of my turn a little high, and it still held quite a bit of speed. I was pleased with that. I need to get more jumps on it before I write a bunch of stuff on the internet.

Spizzzarko 0 #15 November 21, 2006 I knew it wouldn't fit in the jav, but I just wanted to try it out for shits and giggles, but more giggles than shits. hahaha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marks 0 #16 November 21, 2006 very nice, I think you would enjoy an 84 even better though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eUrNiCc 0 #17 November 21, 2006 My ZP JVX80 is a tight fit in a 120 Dbag. I'd assume that a full sail of that size would feel at home in a 150 bag. Good luck!Egad, A BASE life defiles a bad age. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #18 November 21, 2006 Dude, I never thought a canopy would like the loading as much as this does. I only have 1 jump on it, but it seems as if it begs to be loaded. This thing is a sleeping monster about to be woken up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhys 0 #20 November 21, 2006 Your profile says you are still on a velocity 96.

Spizzzarko 0 #21 November 21, 2006 Yes my profile still does say that. I don't have that much experience on JVX's (only two jumps) so I can't really expound upon the intricacies of the canopy just yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frost 1 #24 November 21, 2006 Quotevery nice, I think you would enjoy an 84 even better though. I did a quick calculation, his 89 is loaded @ ~2.6 (2.58)... so he'd be loading an 84 at ~2.7... Are you saying that's the preferred loading for a JVX? Any type or hybrid only? Are there preferred loadings for distance/speed for JVX? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
