  3. hello all!

    i owend an advance out and there is absolutely nothing to complain about. it's a great rig that fits like a glove, the pin protection is great also and i never had any problems with the container. apart from that, the combination af a speed 150 and a sabre 150 packs small compared to many other rigs on the market!
    i sold it to a friend about one year ago since he was looking for that canopy combination and he liked the rig. thing is here in germany that it is not so common and therefore i decided to sell it as a package.
    conclusion: great work from france - that sh*t is dope... keep the great work up...

    No mate, however we did study your rig at the same time, not to copy but to see how well you designed it. Alot of thought must have gone into that rig. My mate is trying to represent NZ and liked how you represented your colours.

    I think your rig is the best i have ever seen. So much detail and thought went into that rig of yours, that is very obvious.



    i think it's all about clear lines and shapes and that makes it ieasy for me. thought about having the other one in roval blue instead of the green and some white pinstripes but in the end i took something else... will be posted in here soon.
    the forrest green etc is quiet and simple, not stylish - but i love it that way!
    anyway: thank you very much

    Your name looks familiar. What colour is your wings?

    The wings i am talking about is a one of a kind design i think



    i have a forrest green/black 5-2 ext with some golden pinstripes...:$ and another navy blue7red with some white pinstripes to arrive:)

  11. here we go again...
    i own a wings 5-2 ext that holds a speed 2000 135sft & a crossfire 129 and my rigger would get a speed 2000 150sft in as well (though it's a bit tricky). at wings that container is mader for a pd 126...

    speed 2000
    135 - 248 cu.in.
    150 - 266 cu.in.
    170 - 307 cu.in.

    PD

    106 - 153 cu.in.
    113 - 288 cu.in.
    126 - 296 cu.in.
    143 - 338 cu.in.

    i'm about to get another wings and it will be a 8-2 or 8-3 ext. wings suggest a pd143/main150 combination but i picked a speed170/sabre150 for my wingsuit stuff.

    the reserve packs 1 -2 sizes smaller and yes it is more expansive due to the currency. i only recommended the brand cause some in here asked for bigger reserves?!

    check www.paratec.de

    my other vector 3 already looks different:P, but it dont make me feel any better about your rig that looks like John Deere Vector 3:D



    how does it look like then???

  16. Since quite a few in here want a bigger reserve but a small pack volume I might suggest you to have a look at the Speed2000 reserve from Paratec (German prduct).
    The Speed2000 is a very reliable canopy that packs pretty small... Just to give you an idea: My Speed2000 135sqf (246 cu.in.) packs about like the normal PD 106R (253 cu.in.) and my Speed2000 150sqf (266 cu.in.) is somewhat between the PD 106R & the PD 113R (288 cu.in.)
    In other words:
    The Speed packs about 2 sizes smaller than the "normal" PD reserve - and so does the new Optima (that is limited to 143sqf as of today)...
    hope this helps?!

  18. Here' s mine...
    It's a W5-2 ext with the combination of a Crossfire2 129 & a Speed2000 135 reserve (which packs like a PD 106R)!
    Ankie and the staff have done a fantastic job and Scarlett seems to be the right person in her footsteps...
    Have a closer look at the trim tape thingy!
    Wings is just great and I'm about to order a 2nd container these days.
