Hi guys,

I'm pretty new to the sport did my Aff in March last year, and managed to get 60 jumps in untill I moved down under. I am living in the Melbourne area, and will be going up to Nagambie to get my license changed from the UK version to the APF version.

I am looking to buy my first rig, up till now I have been using rented student gear. I fancy an Icon, and think I'll treat myself to a new one (I5 pro/smart 175/pilot 188 zpx). I have searched the net and sent off for a few quotes, but does anyone have any recomendations for a good gear store, and a good rigger in the Melbourne area? I'm also looking for a FF suit, I'm the tall, skinny, floaty type, so need a really slippery one if I'm to keep up with other people, does anyone have any recomendations?

Blue skies, I hope to meet some of you at the DZ soon.

Rich

If you are going to Nagambie and after a freefly suit then you are in luck.
