grosfion 0 #1 July 25, 2002 Got a Odyssey J1K with a PD 143 reserve. My rigger is complaining that the reserve is too small for the container. Does someone has a PD 160 or anything else in this container? I like to have the biggest reserve in there which fit... Thanks Marcus Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'll just be easier to pack... But to the point: Sunpath website tells us that the reserves that fit the J1K are in the 143-150 range, so there really shouldn't be a problem.(www.sunpath.com --> sizing) Erno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do have zero experience on Odysseus-rigs(and pretty near zero on any rig...), but as far as I know PD reserves pack bigger than most(!). Maybe you should ask another rigger? Maybe your rigger just packs too goddamn wellAnd of course, contact Sunpath directly. I'm sure they will help you. Erno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Marcus i have pd-143r in j1. it fills it perfectly. i think 160 will squeeze there as well. stan. -- it's not about defying gravity; it's how hard you can abuse it. speed skydiving it is ...

skybytch 273 #6 July 25, 2002 According to Sunpath's sizing chart, the J1 was built for a PD143R-Raven 150-Tempo 150; that canopy should fit in there perfectly. You sure it's not a J2? The J2 was built for a PD160R-Raven 181-Tempo 170/150 zp main. Check the data panel (tucked into the inside of the top reserve flap); if it's really a J1 I'd give Sunpath a call and ask them about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #7 July 26, 2002 years ago, I jumped a J1 with a PD-143 reserve. It was the "standard" size reserve for that rig. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
