Sabre2ooth 0 #1 August 10, 2008 Hi guys, I am looking to downsize again without changing container, and was wondering if anyone has put a 150 sq ft canopy in a Javelin Odyssey J4K container? It originally had a Sabre 2 190 in it, and currently has a 170. I am looking for put either a Sabre 2, Safire 2 or a Spectre 150 in it. Also are there any canopies with a larger pack volume to compensate for the downsizing? Any help would be appreciated guys. Cheers, Ryan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrown 26 #4 August 10, 2008 What does Sun Path say ? Have you tried it ? A general sort of rule of thumb is that most containers will allow the next two smaller size mains before things get too loose. You're smart not to downsize on your reserve. Some parachutes really ARE meant to slow you down. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont like borrowing things very often, especially from father time. FYI there's more to think about than just the closing pin. Be safe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
