npgraphicdesign 3 #1 July 12, 2009 ...my used Cypres took an extended vacation in Germany ...but now, I own a new used rig, and damned proud of it. Container: Vector II Main: Triathlon 210 Reserve: Raven II 240 AAD: Cypres 2 Good enough for at least a few hundred jumps, and if I feel the urge to freefly, I'll borrow pilotdave's rig. Already did my first two jumps with it this weekend. One jump out of a 206 and one jump out of an R44 whirlybird. So that's two firsts? Crap...BEER!!!

But, it was a great deal, and I'll use it to work on my belly flying. If I need to freefly...I'll think of something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 37 #6 July 12, 2009 If the velcro for the leg strap pouch isn't already covered, cover it with pile velcro cut to length. Or if you'll never use it remove it carefully. Better done by an experienced rigger but if your very careful you can do it yourself. This will keep that hook velcro from grabbing things and causing wear and tear.I'm old for my age.
