  1. You bet! I can't wait to jump out of the skyvan they have coming. Should be a pretty good time
  2. Hi everybody! Just making an introduction... Heres a little about me I did the first 4 AFF levels in 09, then couldnt afford to continue and long story short didnt get to continue. But this year in late may I decided enough was enough and started again. Since then I have gotten my A license and now I stand at 42 jumps. Most of those jumps were in the past two and a half months. I am totally addicted. I did a tandem like 10 years ago, and loved it. I have wnated to become a skydiver since I was like 10. It unfortunately just took like 18 years to do it. Oh well, I am now!

  3. Thanks, I went on UPT's site and for the older vectors they dont list exact reserves, just pack volume in cubic inches. I'm holding off for now because a 193 would put me at 1.13 wingloading. and at only 42 jumps I dont know if thats too much.
  4. I'm going to be ordering a new reserve today and I can't get ahold of my rigger and I'm not near my dz. My current container is a vector 2 sized V8. On upt's site they say it will hold up to a 500 cubic inch volume reserve. My question is will a pd 193 reserve which is 471 cubic inches fit? I don't want to piss off my rigger with a reserve that is a beeyatch to pack. He's hopefully going to have to pack it in the vector only once because I want to get a newer container during the winter months for next season. I would buy used but there is nothing in the size I need available and I need one ASAP. What do yall think? Oh and what lines should I go with, microline, dacron, spectra? and slider grommets, stainless or brass? Thanks for the help
