I've picked up a quiver of Slingshot Javelins - 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5. The 5.5 and 6.5 are for South Padre Island but I need to add smaller wings for SF Bay spring and Gorge summer winds, so I've ordered a 2.5m. Question to more experienced wingers - is it worth filling in the gap with a 3.0m?

I use my 3.0 more than any other wing in the Gorge. I'm only 143.7 lbs so when I'm on my 3 most of my heavier friends are on 3.5's

I ended up getting 2.5 and 3.0... you only live once, and you can't take it with you.

I'm 205# and tend to go out when it is light-midrange more often than when it is nuking. My quiver consists of 6.1, 5.1,4.3 and 3.5
