Sangi 0 #1 April 6, 2009 So I was wondering, what containers are you using? Obviously this poll is mainly directed at US jumpers, but others are free to vote and post as well Also it would be nice if you said what made you choose the container you use and what do you think are the pros and cons of it. I myself use Parachutes de France made Atom Axis, it's quite an oldy.. http://www.dropzone.com/gear/Detailed/240.html And even though I bought it second hand it fits me perfectly (and I am quite a small person), it's super comfortable and the build quality is absolutely great, it was made in 2000 and it's still great. No cons I can think of."Dream as you'll live forever, live as you'll die today." James Dean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon2 2 #5 April 6, 2009 Atom and Icon (which is sorta an Atom anyway). I like both, both were 2nd hand so cheap and they fit which is nice I've had 4 Atoms in all, plus a Vulcan (Vector 2 clone) and the Icon. Too bad PdF has such lousy customer service as I do really like Atoms and the Techno reserves (not their mains though) so I'd not advise anyone to buy new stuff from them at the moment. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon2 2 #8 April 6, 2009 Quote Quote I do really like ... the Techno reserves Techno reserves are nice, PD -R too True, but I must say even the old French reserves (Transfair 128 sqft and Mayday 156 sqft) fly and mainly flare a bit better than the PD126R I have about 10 jumps on (as a main, filming CRW ). Haven't jumped my Smart yet, should be good as well. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyMan 7 #10 April 7, 2009 I have an Icon, a Vector II, and a Mirage G3. My favorite is the Mirage. The rig has aged very well, and Mirage seems to have very good customer service. Their turnaround times for new orders is good, and their prices are pretty good. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moto89 0 #13 April 7, 2009 Wiiiiings. I bought it because I could get a brand new custom built container with all the bells and whistles for $1600. I feel it is just as good as any other container out there, yet costs significantly less than comparable rigs.Less talking, more flying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #15 April 7, 2009 Two Voodoos, two Talon FX. Voodoos for wingsuiting and most flying, Talons (one is for demo, the other is one I lend to others and keep "just in case." I love my Voodoos, but sure loved an older Stunts Eclipse I had. Very comfortable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
