Let me know if you see any good deals on a rig, I need a 170ish that isnt too advanced I got about 50 jumps, shooting for 100 by the end of next month. My budget is 1500-2000, but looking for a great deal, maybe another jump pilot who can help a poor brother out.

man ther is never enough time, remember when u where young time seemed to crawl by. someone really needs to do some research on this time warp that happens when u get older and the years, days,and months just start flying by.

best way is to piece it together from dropzone.com classifieds. u should be able to put a rig together for that


Dropzone.com Skydiving Classifieds: Quasar Q 4/2, Triathon 160 Main, Stellar 180

Dropzone.com Skydiving Classifieds: Javelin J3 Sabre 170 Tempo 170 Reserve

Dropzone.com Skydiving Classifieds: Racer/Firelite

just ask ur rigger how to measure you for a rig, and dont be afraid to buy
a rig the part it out for what u need. i can usually put a rig together minus aad for $1500.

What's your plan for putting 650 to the ground? I'm personally an Evo fan, and I know that 650 in an awd car will get a good amount of wheel spin; unless you roll the fender and put some serious rubber in there.

How about drivetrain?
Twin disc or triple disc; what kinda trans case? Swapping to a 5 speed?
Also, are you planning on doing an EMS or the stock ECU?

My wife and I will be taking a long awaited trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton. We do one big trip a year and this is what we have planned for this year. We did Alaska last year and Italy the year before that.
