  1. Upon deployment, my PC got entangled with the bridle. The terminal deployment of my Smart 190 felt like a standard Navigator opening. Flew inn, made a flat turn with deepbrakes, and had only a small flare left on landing. Nothing to complain about. It felt just super smoooth!

    I've never jumped any other reserve, but this one felt good, and I'll probably stick with it for a long time!

    Lost my freebag, but that's a cost I can live with..litterly =)

  2. If you're a stundent and want a new rig this would be a good frist rig. It's cheap, but has a lot of smart solutions and they are improving the icon all the time. It also includes some $350 in options that you have to pay for to get on other rigs.

    I've had mine for 45 jumps and Ive got nothing to complain about on the rig.

    However: When i ordered it, it was delivered 2 days after what I asked for(I came to the US(I live in Norway) to pick it up at a friend of mine in phoenix, and i had only 7 days there. I even specified it to my dealer). And when i got it it was the wrong color on the PC and with a narrow cheststrap( I ordered a wide). But that's nothing critical, just anoying. Then after only 5 jumps my bag started getting torn up on one of the sides where the "lid" on the bag is. I contated my dealer back in norway and he said he could do a temporarly fix on the bag, so I could jump while I waited for the new bag and right colored PC to arraive.

    This was in june. Last week( mid january 06) i got the bag and the PC. Only to find out that the bag was one size smaller!!!!

    As I've heard from others, these things can happen to any rig, but it still sucks. I don't want to wait another 9 months to get a new bag....
