Vector micron w/ pulse 170 for a first rig?? Yes or no?
mjosparky replied to Spiffycop's topic in Gear and Rigging
You are going at it backwards. Figure out what canopies you want and buy a container to fit. You should be on a main canopy around the 190 sq. ft. range. But that’s just my opinion. Whatever you buy it’s not a good deal if it is the wrong gear. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals -
It’s like everything else. You have to walk before you crawl. They are going to have to start small and gain the experience to go big. Tunnel time is one thing and free fall time is another. Many of the skills learned in the tunnel can be transferred to free fall but they can’t replace experience. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

What he said. Get some coaching, take a canopy class. Make every jump an accuracy jump. Do not allow yourself to become cargo. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam.. 'Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!' A smart-ass student in the back of the room raised his hand and asked, 'What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?' The entire class is reduced to laughter and snickering. When silence was restored, the teacher smiled knowingly at the student, shook her head and sweetly said, 'Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand.' A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store but she couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked a stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?' The stock boy replied, 'No ma'am, they're dead.' Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

I'd consider it, off a bridge or something I could track away from for a few seconds so I don't have to worry about an off heading opening slamming me into a cliff face. Also probably not for several hundred more jumps. I'll go out of a balloon from 5 or 6 grand sooner, though. That looks like fun. There are no cliff faces to hit with a bridge. That’s why they call it a bridge. Depending on the height of the launch site you may not have a “few” seconds to track. Sparky My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
