ypelchat 0 #1 September 16, 2003 I ordered a Vortex II container, and I was wondering how many of you have this container? What do you think of it? Yves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 0 #2 September 16, 2003 I'm very curious why you ordered it first and THEN asked for an opinion on it?My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ypelchat 0 #3 September 16, 2003 Buying a piece of equipment, doesn't mean that you can't seek opinions of others who bought the same equipment! My question was directed to the people who currently own a Vortex II. I forgot to mention that my new container has not been delivered yet. ( just a few more days to wait ) Yves.

mr2mk1g 10 #4 September 17, 2003 I think he means why didnt you go to the trouble of getting opinions on it before you shelled out money on it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unutsch 0 #8 September 17, 2003 my teammate owns one and is very satisfied with it... especiallywith the look of the rasta colors he pun on it i never jumped it though, in my opinion, it is too long on the back... i prefere shorter rigs, like atoms or vectors...

metalslug 31 #9 September 17, 2003 Quote Thanks! Do yo know if they have a website? As you may already know, the Vortex II is manufactured by Parachute Systems, formerly Chute Shop. Their website is http://www.parachutesystems.co.za or http://www.vortexii.com. Both link to the same page. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trumpetfish 0 #14 September 18, 2003 only put 5 or so jumps on mine but from everything ive read and the limited experience of mine, I'm well happy with it. Seems like a great rig at a great price. If there was one complaint it would be that my rig sits on the top of my bum a little bit, but I bought it second hand so just have to put up with that for the time being, no biggie really.
