For me, i jump my lovely vx 84. if you have more than one xbraced just put the one you fly the most or the one you like more.Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #12 February 7, 2005 I just recently upsized to a Velocity 84 (2.04 without any lead; perfect). I jumped a Velocity 79 for two years and had a Velocity 75 for a while as well. I owned a VX 74 for a season (2000), but hated the openings so I sold it to Troy Ketsdever. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ccowden 0 #14 February 7, 2005 Hey Chuck- You got a pic of a swoop on that 84 of yours? Do you wear weights alot or do you like the 2.04 wingload for all-around swooping? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #15 February 7, 2005 I traded Jamie Knoop (Z-hills swooper) straight across for his 84. I don't wear weights generally, but will probably put some on to load it up to about 2.2 for speed courses at meets. It's pretty amazing how much more float I get on rears with the extra five square feet over my head. A 90 would be an even better canopy if I regularly wore weight, but I am just not into wearing lead at all as most of the jumps on my Velo are AFF work dives and the occasional non-wingsuit fun jump. Besides, a 90 would not fit into either of my containers. No, I don't have any pics of me under the 84; I just got it put in my rig late last week. I misqouted my wingload earlier; it's actually 2.05. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
