Jessica 0 #1 February 20, 2003 So I was looking at the "cheap jumpsuits" someone was advertising, and realized that what used to be Tad's jumpsuits in Australia is now Gravitator Airwear in Australia. Just FYI!Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #3 February 20, 2003 Don't assume you are going to get a great deal, shipping and import taxes can add up.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure what homeland security has done to the import taxes & such, but I've bought 2 freefly suits from Tad's (on two seperate occasions) and shipping was only about $25... only paid about $155ea for the suits (which included shipping to the US). I love their suits. Blues! Merrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skygod7777 0 #6 February 20, 2003 QuoteI love their suits. how many jumps do you have under them?? i am wondering how they hold up?? thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squeak 17 #7 February 20, 2003 speaking from an Aussie point of view. their suits stand up very well. They are sued by serveral ppl on our DZ and they are the suits the Dz uses for students. The studnet suits cop a flogging and hold up well. I think they are very good value for moneyBut I'm an aussie and so are they so it's cheaper for me to get them You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

sdsouthsask 0 #8 February 20, 2003 Tads suits are an excellent deal. I purchased one 3 or 4 years ago and still jump it. I probably put 600 jumps on it and it looks like new after I wash it. There are no rips and the stitching is all still intact. It was a lot cheaper for me to purchase this suit than to go with any suit manufactured in the US as the Canadian dollar was low. Tads are also just less expensive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
