  1. I'm currently flying a old Javelin container with non-adjustable straps (can only tighten) and little padding on the leg straps. Openings are fine but doing tight turns really cuts into my legs. Is it possible to replace the padding or add padding to the straps or even replace the whole harness with a more comfortable ring-setup?
  2. Greetings all! I just got to AFF #4 this weekend and what a rush! Too bad there was too much wind on sat otherwise i would've finished it! but i just wanted to say hello! I still have a grin on from the first experience of solo-free fall (when they let you go!) WHAT A RUSH!
  3. You guys are probably right, i'm going to finish my AFF and then worry about a rig afterwards. Thanks guys! i hope to get finished a little after march when it starts to warm up!
  4. yes, sorry i wasn't clear about that! I've done 3 tandems at that runway and the owner has put the 80-85 jumps on the rig.
  5. Ok update! Also the jumps were made in south georgia, i've jumped at that DZ and its pretty green and grassy except for the runway :-P *** I have put around 80-85 jumps on the main myself and if I remember right it had about 200 or so when I got it. The reserve has 0 rides as far as I know. ***
  6. Hey i'm new to skydiving and looking to pickup a rig. I've got a friend selling this kit for $2,000. Is this a good price/rig for a beginner? I'm 6'2" and about 200lbs. I trust the guy, just a bit paranoid and second opinions wouldn't hurt!! Thanks! ********************* The rig is a Javelin. I think it's a J-5 or CJ-5 model. It's definitely suited to someone my/your size. DOM 1995. Hackey-sac handle, non collapsible pilot chute, BOC deployment. Cypress is installed and had its 8 year service in Sept/Oct time frame of '03. Valid life of a AAD is 12 years so it has about 2 1/2 years left (You will be in a new rig by then). The Main is a Saber 190 with a collapsible slider. It opens slow which makes the openings super soft. The reserve is a PD 193 if I remember right. Colors are red, black, and white. *********************
