birdynamnam 28 #101 February 4, 2009 Ohh another death trap owner ... Well I had partly open corners on my old rig (worked like a charm). I take advice from my rigger seriously and he adviced against it on the jav; reason is that in order to have any effect on that rig, it have to be completely open (dynamic). He had done one mod. himself and he just did not "like" it. The sequence stuff... The looks... The sequence stuff is obvious TO ME. The looks IS important, while I walk to the plane...

phoenixlpr 0 #102 February 5, 2009 I fly a Phantom. I got 150+ jumps with a VectorII and a couple with a Javelin `96. None of my rigs got any WS specific modification. I used a 32" kill line PC with a short bridle without any problem whatsoever for 100+ jumps. For the record I open from full flight so not from a vertical trajectory....

birdynamnam 28 #103 February 5, 2009 There are many parameters in this equation. The boxed design of the tray is just one of the parameters. What sdctlc points out reg. how tight does your canopies pack in your rig, is yet another parameter. And my stuff packs tightly: guilty of getting a more docile canopy after experiencing some violent spinners Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
