You are bidding on a complete skydiving rig. This rig is in IMMACULATE shape. I have jumped this rig fewer than 100 times. It has always been packed indoors on carpet and a packing mat.
This rig will be shipped with an extra large, nice gear bag that is in tip-top shape. Color scheme is blue with a purple strip in the corner.
This rig looks fantastic and has never had a rough or muddy landing. I am 6'2" and it fits me snugly - meaning an average to tall person will fit well.
Specifics:
Container:
Javelin by Sun Path - size J2 (serial #19610) DOM - Sept. 00
Fully articulated harness
Color scheme is pictured. Colors are clear, not faded at all. Looks brand new.
Back pad color is Grey.
No pitting or rust on any of the three ring system (or any other part).

*There are a couple of pea-sized patches on the top skin from a bridle friction burn on an opening (around jump 75). This was sent to, and repaired by, Aerodyne themselves.

Serial #4060C9C45EC82250

Never Fired - Whew, thankfully.
Batteries have been changed on time each time.
Probably due for another change soon - I have priced accordingly.
The only reason I am selling this rig is because sadly, I don't jump very often anymore. This was my first rig that I owned and it is extremely comfortable and reliable. I plan to also post and ad on dropzone.com and other gear sites.
I will ship FEDEX/UPS ONLY! I don't want this rig to get lost or damaged by the post office. Shipping will be no more than $50. Insurance is absolutely required (for both our protection). I will not rip you off on shipping charges - I promise.
Check out my other items (helmet, camera helmet, altimiter, dytter, etc.). I will be happy to combine shipping if the buyer wishes.
No international addresses. I will ONLY ship to the US buyers. Sorry, it's a big pain to ship internationally, and a huge liability for the seller.
The rig has been jumped and/or inspected by riggers at the following drop zones:
Skydive San Marcos (Texas)
Skydive Spaceland (Texas)
Skydive Crosskeys (New Jersey)
Skydive Miami (Florida)
Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
Blue Skies!
On May-06-08 at 18:30:31 PDT, seller added the following information:This reserve must be repacked before jumping by your FAA certified rigger at your local dropzone's loft. Skydiving is a dangerous sport and I (the seller) assume no responsibility for the buyer's jumps. For both the seller and the buyer's protection the closing loops on both canopies will be opened prior to shipping. This will help ensure a rigger's inspection prior to your next jump. Safety first!
