    This is my first full face helmet, so i don't have anything in terms of long term usage to compare it to. I am delighted with it. Very comfortable, very little fogging. Easy to open (once you're familiar with the release buttons) According to the size chart I should have been a medium.. Medium was a little large, so I went for a small and it fits perfectly.

    Skydive Spain

    Now that's what I call progression... What an amazing, experience, I haven't stopped smiling yet. With 240 jumps already under my belt finding the time and weather to get the necessary briefs and assessments done in the UK was proving tricky. Skydive Spain's B license progression course seemed like the answer, and I can not thank the instructors and staff enough. Nothing was too much trouble. Right from the initial stages of booking the course, through to goodbyes at the end of the week, everyone, without exception, was friendly, attentive and professional. The combination of first class instructors, and great facilities and friendly staff made for very easy learning. JM1 and CH2 to packing, rig inspections, and spotting, the briefs were well planned and informative. The added bonus of the most amazing FF instructor was the icing on the cake for me. Anyone having done their AFF looking for more knowledge, or working towards their B license, this is the course, and the DZ for you. 10/10 Skydive Spain (the smile factory) keep up the good work. I'll certainly be back.
  3. Pinjarra is a small but friendly DZ just to the South of Perth. I called a day before I intended to jump and was filled with confidence by Rob's enthusiasm. I arrived the following day, paperwork done, I was sorted out with kit and jumped within no time at all. A pity I wasn't able to stay longer. Will certainly be calling in again on my next visit to Perth.
  4. nice one M, love the colours,. I have just posted mine up too! there are some great designs on here.
  5. Thanks for the suggestion, I have tried to move it further up my back, the net result is that I end up with the yoke hitting the back of my head when I am in a boxman position. and my spine feels like it is being compressed when I stand up :O( I'm hoping Ward at Mirage to get back to me soon.
  6. Gutted! This is my first rig, and I wanted to get jumping with it....Ok guys, so, the dealer measured me, who pays to put it right? I've emailed Ward & awaiting a response :-(
  7. I've attached a couple photo's as suggested. Thanks for all the help so far ;-)

  9. Thanks peeps, having trouble uploading pics,but will try again.
  10. Hi, I'm looking for some advice please. My new rig arrived yesterday, and it is uncomfortable on the shoulders and is making them ache after only a short time of wearing it. The riser covers to the top of the container seems to be at right angles rather than sitting around my shoulders. The leg pads, don't meet, and if I do the leg straps up tight enough so that they do, i feel really restricted. Is this something that will 'give' over time, or is there something wrong with the sizing? Thanks in advance
