MathmatiC 0 #1 December 23, 2003 Have any of you guys either had, or seen a X-fire 119 in a Javelin Odyssey RSK.5? I talked to Sun Path already and they said it would fit, but would be uncomfortable. Just curious as to your opinions, and experience on the subject. An RSK.5 holds upto 120 reserve and 107 main. Thanks, Matt *** Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hooknswoop 19 #2 December 23, 2003 I had an XRS and there was no way anything over the PD-113R would fit in the reserve container. I knew someone that had a Stiletto 107 in their XRS and the D-bag finally split open. I'm not sure how much larger the RS is over the XRS it replaced.

Thanks, Matt It holds a 107 main... and you're asking if a 119 will fit... NO... That canopy is measured well larger than a 107.... (and they use the "different" measuring system.)

I Have never heard of it.

PIA needs to set a standard. btw....X-fires pack bigger than say a Stiletto of the same size due to the extra material on the nose. The X-fire1 packs up bigger than the X-fire 2 due to having all the D lines (ie. sabre) where the 2 has 2 less like the Stiletto.Fly it like you stole it!
