  1. sweet congrats!!!!! just hope it flys better than it look's
  2. going from a 220 to a 190 shouldnt be a big deal i though it was fun.and reflex is a pretty good rig just make shure you ask if the gromets have been reset.and have a rigger check it out before you buy it.always get your rigger to check it out before you buy it.the seller shouldnt have a problem with it if he or she does then i wouldnt buy it,there may be a problem with the gear.
  3. nice that helmet kicks ass.......
  4. i have owned 2 space's a 150 and a 130 and loved both of them.they dive and have the sofest opening's i have ever had every time!!!and if a canopy is ever a pleasure to pack this one is it!i would recomend it to any one wanting a high performance canopy with slow opening's.
  5. if i were you id demo a crossfire 2 but if your set on a cobalt i have a compition model 120 with no jumps id sell you for a good price.email me if you want to talk more...
  6. sounds like a hell of a deal snatch it up before some one else does
  7. i was told a long time ago that gaths were made for water sports where you dont need as much protection.the pic you posted loks like a old gath.
  8. no you dont they arnt a popular rig people use today.but in my opinon they are a well built rig and strong int.is going to be around for a while.if you want more info on them you should talk to a rigger who knows about them they will have more insight for you.
  9. i had a qusar 2 it was vey comfortable.and strong industries is a good company.the only problem i had was the covering flap for the main pin kept coming open.so when i bought a new rig i swooped with it.
  10. i belive that the old style did not have a economy mode but they can be turned off
  11. yea i have a gravitator and it rocks!!!!!!!!
  12. there are some good pics at skydiveelsinore.com
  13. ive seen people write about a cobalt with a h-mod.what is it i havent heard what this is and what is the differnce between this and a cobalt compition model any imput would br appreciated.thanks
  14. first off are you ready to fly a 170?have you flown one before?if so then it isnt a bad deal.spectre's are great canopy's.and one for 1000.00 with only 18 jumps is a good deal basicaly your getting a new canopy for 1000.00 dollars.id buy it if i wanted a 170.
  15. I've had mine for over a year and they fly great! Are built well and last. I cant count how many times I've sled in swooping and there still holding up great! Altho on some spots the grass stains wont come out.
  16. my first canopy was a saber 150 and it slammed me all the time!didnt matter how i packed it.but alot of people say theirs dont and open good all the time.i think there is more people who say their a great canopy.besides the openings i liked mine it flew great even in turblance id recomend one for some one makeing the transition from square to semi eleptical.and you cant go wrong with a pd canopy.
  17. try gravitator.biz i love my gravitator suit
  18. sweet tell me how yours flys,i didnt go with the reinforced knees just the ass.but it is stiff.
  19. has any one ever heard of gravitator suits before?me nearther so i found there web site at www.gravitator.biz and checked it out.the price was right so i bought one and got it today.the colors are cool and bright and it feels light weight and breaths real nice.looks sweet so if and body wants a good cheap suit get a gravitator they rock!!!and cost with all the upgrades i got was about 150.00 us dollars
  20. hey its not your fault shit happens..your bound to pack a canopy that has to be cut away sooner or later dont take it personal it probably wasnt the pack job.in fact if your ever at elsinore come find me bobby and ill let you pack for me.just keep practicing and youll do great!!!!!!!!!!!!and dont be scared.
  21. first off i think it is very cool of you to do a experament of that nature and share it with us keeping us informend.second off you have way to much time on your hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  22. i started jumping with a camera a little earlier than i probably should have.id say its not the number of jumps its how comfortable do you feel and not just with jumping with a camera but jumping all together,i.e..emergency procedures. and what you would do if something happened.and go ask other camera flyers their feelings and opinions that is always good.
