rig for newbie

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a rig but I don't know what I want.
I'm 5'10'' 160lbs with 22 jumps.
I've jumped 209 and 169 Icarus student canopies.
should I look for used or buy new, what size canopy should I have (think conservative I want to be around to jump for a long time)and how much should I plan on spending. I have looked on the classifieds and on Ebay but haven't seen the right rig yet.
Maybe some of you have some suggestions.

Have you read the post that is sticky at the top of this forum?

There is quite a good bit of information in there. Also, the best person to help you decide what canopy type and size is your instructors. They have seen your preformance and know what your ready for.
