  1. I can talk only from my personal experience. Speed 2000 is the reserve with the smallest packing volume on the market. 120 packs the same or just a bit smaller than Optimum 113.(and performs better than Optimum).The openings are the same,but Speed 2000 has more powerful flair. They are all good reserves.If you can,jump them all and make your choice based on you own experience Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  2. +1 Chutingstar is the only place where I'm buying my gear.And the main reason is the AMAZING customer service. "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  3. I don't REALLY NEED all of those things, they were just listed there as possible preferences people might have. I personally wanted to have skyhook (only few containers) and 3D foam (all containers I guess, haven't seen one that doesn't offer this option). Skyhook and the magnets are fashion. If you want to be cool,you need them. And I think after 2 years the same will count for the spectra reserve ripcord.

  4. They are part of CPS and because of that they don't really care about the sport market "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  5. Can you please tell me why you REALLY NEED to have skyhook, mag. riser covers, pop-top reserve PC??? "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  6. With Spectra lines ...YES. But will be tight.And also depends where.Canopies tend to pack up larger in dry dusty climates. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  7. Speed 170 will fit but will be soft(normal fit)If you rigger is good reserve packer He might be able to put 190 .I can pack Speed 135 into my Mirage G4 MXS 1/2 made for PDR 113 "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  8. No offense but if you leave your parachute for packing with a stepthrough ,don't be surprise if you get it this way. No entanglement,half brakes,slider and PC done is your job. blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen

  10. What about this one? :) "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  11. PD reserve soft links(SR-1) are made from Spectra 1500 lbs and they are approved under T.S.O C23d.You can jump them with your main. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  12. From your pictures it looks as the rig is a pretty good fit if worn properly. It appears that you’re wearing the rig a bit low on your back from how low the yoke is on your back and how your stabilizer cants downward. Try this... Put your rig on and bend over sliding the rig all the way up until the yoke hits your neck, then put on your chest strap and then keep the rig high on your back and tighten down the leg pads a bit more than you have in the pictures and see if that is comfortable. The leg pads do not actually need to touch as long as there is padding material wherever there is suspended weight This is just my opinion.

    Mirage G4 M3

    WrongYou miss the point.The question is G4 M3 or G4 M4 and M3 and M4 are sizes,not models The best you can do is if you call Mirage.They know better than me,you or somebody else here. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen

  19. Only one word.......DEMO I like my Sabre 290% on heading....10% bad body position. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  20. Hm,check the area around the grommet.It doesn't look OK. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  21. Only if I want offheading openingsDon't do it.The opening is soft anyway. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  22. If I have to guess,I would say it's a wax coated webbing.Less slippery through the SS hardware.But you should talk to them.Give them a call and ask. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
  23. I had the same a few weeks ago.Brand new G4,hop & pop and about 2 sec delay on the PC.I guess because of my main is a bit tight(Sabre 2/MXS1/2).I will see on my next jump.I will go terminal.

  24. If you want a new reserve(Optimum) only because of the pack volume.Don't waist your money.In my opinion PDR 126 fits just perfect into TJNK.But if you want a newest reserve on the market,go for it!

  25. http://bigairsportz.com/article.php#slider I have a Mirage G4 with slider lock risers.It's option from Mirage.So far,no problems. Blue skies "My belief is that once the doctor whacks you on the butt, all guarantees are off" Jerry Baumchen
