Malta_Dog 0 #1 October 4, 2004 Hello, It has been troublesome to send you emails so I'll give it a go here. I'm a new jumper waiting for my A license number and planning to buy a new complete rig since I can't find something in my wing loading. I am more than attracted by the Vector because of the Skyhook. I have to say that my DZ is mostly 'Javelin' so I can't find there much direct information or opinions. However, the rigger (40+ years in the sport) said that this is an excellent rig (albeit less comfortable than the Javelin...his words ) if I can afford it. 1st question: Can you give me a list of dealers for Belgium/Northern France/Netherlands? 2nd question: Can you give me a rough idea of the taxes/delivery costs I should expect if I buy it online? 3rd question: As the Smart reserve canopy is not listed in your sizing chart, would a Smart 190 fit in a container sized for a Spectre 190? Same, would a Smart 175 fit with a Spectre 170? Thanks in advance. All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyinseivLP2 0 #2 October 4, 2004 The smart is a reserve and the spectra is a main, so they would be in different containers. Figure out what canopies you want and they will build you the appropriate size container. Check out their website and it should have some of this info on there. There is an ad with a link to it here on dropzone.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malta_Dog 0 #3 October 4, 2004 Oops maybe I used the wrong terms. For me the container is holding the main and reserve bags. I've already checked their website and this is why I'm posting this. For instance, the V350M holds a Spectre 190 and a PD176R. Does this mean that I would only be able to put a Smart 175 inside, or do the Smart pack tighter than the PD R? (I really would like to have a reserve as big as the main) All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GravityGirl 0 #4 October 4, 2004 Expect the pack volume of the Smart to be similar to that of the PD reserve. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malta_Dog 0 #5 October 4, 2004 Thanks GG. So it seems that I would have to go for a 190 main - 175 reserve. Any idea about the delivery and taxes costs? All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
