newbie going for the gold

Recommended Posts

Welcome to the boards! Glad to see someone I have a prayer of catching up to on jumps! ;)

Yeah, it's fine, we'll walk down the line. Leave our rain, a cold trade for warm sunshine
You my friend, I will defend... and if we change, well, I love you anyway

Think about waiting for a bit on this one. When you get closer to finishing your student jumps, talk to your instructors and DZO about what gear to look at. Stay away from "advice" you'll get from the peanut gallery. Nobody else knows your skydiving needs better at this point than your instructors.

Buy used gear until you settle into a canopy of your choice. I just hate when students are suckered into buying brand new gear.

Ask around, try some on, make sure it fits, and make sure you're not being taken for a ride on the price....

IMO, all fairly new gear is a pretty safe bet Gear has come such a long way. It's mostly just preference.
