I'm sure there has been changes made ..... but as many riggers from my area and as an old DZM The wings where referred to as the dump your shoulder before deploying reserve rig .... I base my opinion on the older models i seen and watched popped and after all this is just my opinion EarthBoundMisfit

I have 2400 jumps on a wings 2800 total and 3 reserve rides on the same rig ... guess i have no idea what I'm talking about.... Glade you have it worked out EarthBoundMisfit

to mjosparky: a manufacturer would never say there rigs have weak points . untill you see or ride a reserve from a wings you wont understand ..... i have an older wings around the 2000 model ..... and never has it launched past 4 foot EarthBoundMisfit

as a S&TA .....IMHO yes you need experience in every part of skydiving to give advice to others in matters of safety and trainning..... how could i tell you what you need if i my self don't know.... EarthBoundMisfit

yes in most cases the spring strength has allot to do with it ......take your talon one of the strongest springs it will bloody your nose if the closing loop breaks on repack...... EarthBoundMisfit

Been flying a wings for years and have had to blaze the reserve a couple times.........don't take this wrong i like my wings but.......every one knows the wings and the javelin have the worlds weakest reserve springs..... take that for what its worth! EarthBoundMisfit
