betzilla 56 #2 September 6, 2003 The Altimaster Galaxy, made by Alti-2, is awesome, and the company has amazing customer service and a sweet lifetime warranty on their products. Price: around $150. Oh, and it now comes with a glow-in-the-dark face, for night jumps (and extra cool-factor). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #3 September 7, 2003 QuoteWhich are the best? Get thee to a gear store and try a few on your hand. The best one is the one that you like the best. They're all going to do what you want them to do.... I jump a Robnyk Sapphire alti. One of the lowest priced altis out there, works great, has a larger face than some other wristmount altis and I prefer the mount on it over the type on the Alti 3 Galaxy and FT50. Downsides - plastic case, manufactured outside the US, sometimes "off" by a couple hundred feet at altitude when compared to other altis in the plane.

sdctlc 0 #4 September 7, 2003 You will have a nuber of choices. There is another thread going on in this forum onthe Evolution I altimeter. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=644541;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread I have not seeen one yet but have been talking with them via E-mail as well as getting some opinions from other people. Taking both of these into account they seem to offer a great altimeter. I am ordering one and will put up a review when I get it but so far the information I have received and the great response from the company is making me very comfortable with buying one. Besides getting a personalized altimeter face is not a bad deal either! Good luck in getting an altimeter! Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

boston129 0 #5 September 7, 2003 ok Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Clownburner 0 #6 September 8, 2003 I'm with the Bytch on this one, you have to try them out. You might even discover that you (GASP) prefer a digital altimeter like the Digitude! 7CP#1 | BTR#2 | Payaso en fuego Rodriguez "I want hot chicks in my boobies!"- McBeth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
