Boosters on Rel suits

[Squeak 17]

what are boosters on rel suits.
The site I've been looking at state that the suits come standard with grips, and boosters Are extra.
So what are they, a pic would be good, I'm a visiual kinda guy

Boosters are Aussie speak for what Americans call booties. They're just extensions of the leg fabric down over the top of your foot, and wrapping around the toe. They tend to make your track a bit better, but take some getting used to. If you want more info on them, try searching for "booties" in the RW forum, or elsewhere.

boosters sounds SO much better than booties. Maybe I'll start using that and see if it catches on. I am such a trend setter, ya know?

who are you looking at getting your rel suit from?

I'm looking at RMW and Airsuits, with Tads coming in third in my consideration...

I have two Airtime suits, Free fly and RW. Alan White is the shit and makes an excellent product. Rock up to Ramblers do some B-rels have the instructors get a feel for your fall rate and have Al measure and build you you one or two. He can also do killer graphics look at Paul and Debs FF suits.

Man I miss AU .

I would love to rock up to Ramblers, only it's about a 3-5 day commute, or an 8 hr plane trip.

I'm going to my DZ this weekend, and I'll be discussing it with my instructors down there.

I'm probably leaning towards Airsuits atm, but I'm open to discussion...
