riddler 0 #1 January 26, 2012 Does anyone do this? I know one or two jumpers who have them, but have not talked to them specifically about jumping with them on. If you have them, do you take them out before jumping? Any worries about them breaking if you face-plant? I'm thinking it might add a choking hazard to an already dangerous situation. I will say this - the suckers stay in place, tight! I'm not worried about them coming off during freefall. Same question for Wind Tunnels - do you fly tunnel with them in, or take them out?Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g2gjump 0 #2 January 26, 2012 I have about a 100 jumps with them in. Never came out, and they are hard to break. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryoder 1,590 #3 January 26, 2012 Think about it; You effectively have custom fitted mouthguards on both your upper and lower teeth. Fighters put their mouthguards *in* before the match. I talked to my ortho and he agreed they protect the teeth during athletic activities."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

BikerBabe 0 #4 January 26, 2012 did an entire season of 8-way training and competition with them...never had an issue. at the end, your final trays can be used as teeth whitening trays too, if you want! Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #5 January 26, 2012 Quote I talked to my ortho and he agreed they protect the teeth during athletic activities. Surprising to me. I wouldn't think a resin plastic would be nearly as strong as say, a boxing mouthpiece made of rubber. In any event, I'm more concerned about breaking them. Maybe I'll have to do some testing with one set of the older trays Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
