  1. Guys, this is all awesome advice. Thanks! I guess I'm just going to have to go out there and try more rigs. I was wondering whether I'd be able to get a new container whilst I'm out there but it sounds like they're all made to emasure and take a long time for delivery. Well you never know, maybe they'll have a second hand container which I like...

    Having read all these posts, I've got a feeling the choice is going to be between Mirage, Infinity or maybe Vector...

    By the way, my strange posting times are due to me being in London... working for the Discovery channel as it happens.

    As a side-project, I'm going to try and make a 5 minute documentary about skydiving whilst I'm at Eloy for submission to the employee competition (winners get aired worldwide). There aren't enough programs about skydiving, don't you think? Maybe that's why there aren't enough skydivers...

  2. Hi there,

    I'm heading out to Eloy for a solid week of jumping soon. I want to buy my first rig whilst I'm out there. I really liked the Mirage that I jumped and thought the Javelin was pretty good.

    The Icon and the Infiinity look pretty nice too, but I haven't jumped them.

    Can anyone comment on how the Mirage (G4), Icon and Infinity compare against each other?

    If it's relevant, I'm about 5'10 and athletic build, about 155 pounds. I'm planning on putting a 170 main in there once I've flown a few demo mains. Maybe too much info...

  6. Hi Everyone! Met a bunch of you at New Year in Eloy. when I got my A licence. Am still on my world skydive tour, next stop Hawaii! If anyone knows anything about skydiving in Hawaii, Please let me know!! In particlular, where to stay and whether Pacific SD is the best dropzone to use. Similarly if you know anything about jumping in Fiji and Sydney, please let me know.

    Have fun!
