I have two Neptunes and a Protrack, I wear the protrack and one neptune in my helmet as audibles and my other Neptune as a visual alti. I love the digital readout when using it as a visual, I've used neptunes on all 3 of the night jumps I have done without any problems, and it's so easy to read that the person across from me in one night 3 way was reading my alti "beacause it was so much easier" than reading her own analog alti. The canopy alarms are awsome, I dont need them, but I like them. The menu system on the neptune is MUCH easier to use than the protrack, anybody can figure this thing out. Just make sure that you have the latest firmware installed on it and READ THE MANUAL if you are going to do things like night jumps for the proper settings!

I love my FF2, it's a great and very comfortable helmet, ... I fly it with the Sony PC350 right now, also have a PC1000 that will be flown in it. Only two complants that I have about it, the first one being the location of the audbles.. I have played with switching my two audibles around flipping them, everything, I can only hear one of my audbiles in freefall (Protrack and Neptune) . The second one is too high up, I wish there was one on each side instead of the two on top of eachother. Another thing with my helmet is that I've noticed most peoples FF2s have easier to use brackets for mounting the camera, it has one position making it easy to remove and re-install the camera from the helmet .. My bracket has so many adjustments on it that I have to re aim the camera every time I take it out of the helmet (which I must do for firewire ports, AV ports, etc) .. Not sure why mine is different, but it is kinda a pain in the ass....

But like I said, I really do like the helmet, and I'm glad that I choose the FF2!

Just got my first reserve ride on a PDR-193 ... My main is a Fusion 210 and this canopy flew as well as my main, the landing was great, awsome flare.. Reserve was fired by my RSL (most likely, assuming the RSL beat me to the pull) on a malfunction that had me in a spin on my back, canopy opened perfect.. I have not jumped any other reserves, and never will..

I got to jump these as an AFF Student, just thought I'd say that I thought it was pretty nice, I had no complaints. I jumped a different type of student rig at a different drop zone, and it was not near as nice.. Not sure what the other one was though. Not sure what else to say other than I liked it as a student.
