Here is my advice.

Re: [SkyFreak007] New Beginner Rig
my standard advice, which also appears elsewhere, is figure out what the locals jump. if most locals jump rig X, and like it, then consider getting one.

help others help you!

I have star trac II in a skydiving container if you are interested. It was made specifically for bridge day back in the late 90's.

Vents? who needs em.

Just take off the D-bag and you are good to go.

I'll even throw in a mesh slider and a big pilot chute.

Ah, I'm a bastard.

You are right. Actually, I'll include the D-bag. You might want it for those terminal wingsuit jumps.
