nailbiter 0 #1 February 25, 2005 Hey everybody I am new to the sport and new to the site. Here is my question I am a rather big jumper and my instructor had me buy a MC5 HALO rig and I am in the process of putting a cypress and a throw out pilot chute on it what size pilot chute should I buy and what type. Also any tips on where I might be able to find a 2 pin cypress used and in good shape would be appreciated. Thanks Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 37 #2 February 25, 2005 As to the cypres, any cypres can be converted to a two pin. If it's a non field replaceable cutter, which only have at most about 3 years of life left, you have to send it to the service center at SSK. It's $130. If it's a field replaceable cutter you just have to buy the cutter for $230. The one pin field replaceable cutter is still good for it's shelf life. http://www.cypres-usa.com/I'm old for my age.

Nice to see another Anvil join the sport. Pm me if you have any questions about your rig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
