mewing120 0 #1 January 12, 2003 Anyone out there have a J1 Odyssey with a 135 PD main in it? How does it look, pack, etc.. Is it loose or a good fit? Would love to see pics also thanks Ora Vivo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skygod7777 0 #2 January 12, 2003 first let me say i have no idea. but i am wondering why you ask this??? if it's because you are thinking about buying a new one, you can get a OJ, and it fits the same size reserve, with a smaller main. later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andrewstewart 0 #3 January 12, 2003 I believe there are two sizes of J1 Odyssey - a J1KS (S for 'small') and a J1KL (L for 'large'). I have a J1KS which is made to take a 150. I've packed both a Sabre2 135 and a Cobalt 135 into it with no problems. You'll need to shorten your closing loop as appropriate. - Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #4 January 13, 2003 Quotea J1KS (S for 'small') and a J1KL (L for 'large'). Really? I hate it when manufacturers don't tell their dealers about shit like this.... As far as I know, all J1's were built to fit zp 150's. Depending on where you are and how good a packer you are, you can also stuff a zp 170 in a J1. Anyway, a zp 135 will fit nicely in any Javelin/Odyssey J1; should be an easy pack job and a bit more comfortable (less brick like) on your back.

Squeak 17 #5 January 13, 2003 I emailed Sunpath re the sizing recently, apparently they have only made a couple of the KL models to date and there are very few on the market, almost all the J1s are for a 150 You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly right. I packed my Spectre 170 into my J1 for over 200 jumps. - Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
