vid666 0 #4 November 1, 2005 sooooooooooo, do you have carpet in your garage or do you have a separate room dedicated to parachutes ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #5 November 1, 2005 His entire apartment is dedicated to parachutes. If you looked just to the left of that photo, I'd bet you'd see a sewing machine, or a rack to hang canopies, or both. And that's the living room. I'm tempted to go hang all my rigs on the rack in the garage and take a photo. -- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skolls081102 0 #12 November 1, 2005 Since I don't know anything about rigs (except for what I've read and seen here) I'm confused as to which rigs are which. My guess-the 4 rigs to the left are BASE rigs, and the 3 to the right are skydiving rigs. Am I right? The sole intention, is learning to fly.Condition grounded, but determined to try.Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies.Tongue tied and twisted, just an Earth bound misfit.

bps 0 #18 November 1, 2005 I'm a gear freak too -- at one point, I had 9 rigs. Perigee Pro w/ Mojo 280 Perigee II w/ Ace 280 Composite ZP Perigee Pro w/ Ace 280 Perigee W w/ Tektite Javelin w/ Stiletto 150 Javelin w/ Spectre 150 Vector III w/ Spectre 170 Talon II w/ PD-253 (for demos) Eclipse Tandem w/ Icarus 400 But I left my full-time jumping job, and no longer have 2 of the skydiving rigs. Perhaps it's time for more BASE gear... Bryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
