    up-sizing

    okay, i've re-posted this thing now that i've got this whole bb figured out.

    i'm considering a v-tec (spec. the fox) and for various reasons am wondering whether or not i want to up-size on this. those of you who have up-sized, what are the pros and cons. do you have problems with wind penetration, how does it perform, do you jump this in all conditions. this wouldn't be my primary canopy, but i want to have an idea where i'll be inhibited. sorry if this has already been covered before-if it has, a link to that thread will be fine.

    thanks, gin

    RE: up-sizing

    Bigger is always better!

    I have a friend here in Switzerland that had a VTec and can not make it to many landing areas because of his loading. He is now getting another main that is bigger just so he can get more distance under canopy. But this is talking about high jumps. Not USA height jumps.
