Gravitymaster 0 #26 April 14, 2004 I've heard Relative Workshop is coming out with a whole line of skydiving shoes that you can order to match your container. Word I have is they will offer Freefly shoes specially designed for better stability and a greater range of movement. The shoes will even have an adjustable freefly wing to help new freeflyers cope with corking and to help add more forward speed for swooping. I've also heard they will be coming out with an RW shoe. It's similar to the Freefly shoe but the wing can be adjusted more to accomodate the belly flyer and will also help increase horizontal speed much like booties do. Please check with Bill Booth for further details. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gravitymaster 0 #29 April 15, 2004 I've heard they will sell for a base price of about $125.00 and the high end will offer fully articulated stainless steel wing hardware with a gel padding for about $65.00 more. Velcro or lace-up. Should be available next year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingbunky 3 #30 April 15, 2004 velcro or lace-up? i heard it was velcro or tuck tabs. the tuck tabs were recomended for freeflyers as there was less chance of old velcro letting go and possibly losing the shoe."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

I hadn't heard about the tuck tabs but if you think about it, it would make more sense. I think they are still going offer the lace up version but the laces will be 550 Spectra, finger trapped to prevent a possible entanglement with the PC.
