xryanx256 0 #1 August 29, 2008 I am new to skydiving. Last weekend was my first time and I am hooked. I am planning two more jumps next weekend. I love the jump, but once the shut opens the leg straps shred my legs. The equipment that they use is old and the padding is gone. Does anyone have any suggestions to reduce some of the pressure? Maybe a padding that I can bring with me? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
countzero 7 #2 August 29, 2008 go to a sporting goods store and get some "slider" shorts from the baseball department. they have padding around the upper thigh and rear. it's not real thick so it's easily worn under your jumpsuit or clothes.diamonds are a dawgs best friend Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
