    Regular or Optimum? What container? Thanks!

    The RSK is sized for up to a 99zp. Sun Path recommends only one downsize for their containers. However, they say and RSK will hold a 71-79 crossbrace. According to PD the 71 Velo packs smaller than the Katana 83. Seems like the 83 should be ok... Just wonder if anyone has real world experience. Thank you.

    Thanks a lot guys. I decided to shoot Sun Path an email; I wanted to get non-biased opinions before I did so. I am super excited, this will be my first custom / new rig!

    I have an Optima 126 now in my NJK. Did you guys feel that the rig seemed bulky with an Optima 126? I don't want it to feel like a brick... Thank you!

    My next container is going to be a Javelin RSK, which is sized for a 106 - 120 reserve. I know the pdr113 is a tight fit, but I heard that even a pdr99 is tight. I want an optimum reserve, which packs a size smaller. FROM EXPERIENCE: Is a regular pdr99 tight? Would a 99 or 106 optimum be too loose? Thank you! (I pack my own reserve)

    I have seen risers where the middle ring is not a circle, instead it is oval shaped and has an extra piece of metal in the middle. (almost like a figure 8, but not indented in the middle) What are these for? What is their benefit? Thank you.

    I do not see any threads on the lens... Thank you.

    Thank you so much for the informative answer, it was exactly what I was looking for. I would still like to know the date that they changed it, if anyone knows. Thanks a ton!

    The sliders on older canopies have the tabs that barely stick out, the newer ones have the lines that hang out about 10cm. Did they make this change at a certain point on all their canopies? Thank you.

    Hi! I have been lurking around the forums and classifieds for about a month now. I saw a rig she has for sale in the classifieds: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/classifieds/detail_page.cgi?ID=111588;d=1 I am interested in it! However, I have no way to contact her without waiting 3 days, because I just signed up for an account today :( Can any of you guys help me to get into contact with her? Thank you so much!
