what size rig? Im flying a pilot 168 with a 160 reserve

that looks like great bag, going to head down to REI to check it out, thanks!

after looking at the videos, it seems like its just too big to have on my bike. Still an awesome price for an awesome bag, might buy one anyways for other stuff

Thanks a lot for the reply, they look awesome. You sure gave them quite a good review, I may be ordering one. Thanks again!

Hey everybody, I'm trying to find out which gear(rig) bags are the best on the market. I just bought a brand new rig (wings, pilot,PDR,cypress2) and need a really tough bag for it. I almost always take my motorcycle to the DZ so I need a bag that I feel comfortable holding a 6000 rig on my back without worrying about any possibilities of it coming open or coming off my back. Any suggestions? Thanks, blueskies!

Hi, I am about to buy my first rig and I wanted to get some opinions on canopy sizing. I have 90 jumps (all in 2013), and have been flying a rental Sabre2 190 since jump 25 and feel very comfortable with it. I want a 170 for my first rig, i am 165lbs so it would put me at a 1.1:1 wingloading. I think that is safe for 90 jumps. Most experienced jumpers Ive talked to seem to think it would be ok. Im not a "100 jump wonder" I know i am still very inexperienced and I am willing to take advice. I have taken a canopy course with Greg Windmiller and plan to take another. So, any opinions? Anything I should consider?

Looking to buy a new rig, it will also be my first. I have narrowed it down to a wings or vector v3. Wondering if anyone has expierience with both, and which is the better choice. the v3 doesnt offer cut in laterals and wings does, but im not sure if they are that good. I dont know much about them besides the fact that they help the container hug your back. Anyone have any input?

Thanks for the replies everyone. Very helpful

IS the stainless hardware on a wings container really worth the extra 200? I'm trying to buy a new complete system and keep it as close to 7000 as possible...
