GoGators 0 #1 September 7, 2009 I am new to the sport. I started jumping this past spring. I am thinking about buying my own rig but I don't know where to start. I don't know what separates one from another. Does anyone have some advice on what to look for and what to watch out for? Thanks for your help. -Tony Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrbiceps 0 #3 September 10, 2009 Work out with your instructor what size canopy they think u should be jumping and then buy the newest rig with the least jumps on it that u can afford. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will_Evo 0 #4 September 10, 2009 Talk to your local instructor or DZO about finding some used gear. I got extremely lucky when I bought my gear, in that I told me DZO I was looking for some gear and the next day a perfect rig came in for sale. Just keep your eyes open, and definitely talk to your instructor to finding out what size canopy will suite you best. Good Luck -Evo Zoo Crew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
