Cornholio 0 #1 July 23, 2003 So, it's time to buy my FF suit and I already have made up my mind about the manufacturer, but am trying to get some feedback on the 3 styles that I picked that won't make me look too awkward. Due to fabric limitations (read: I am a fatass and need slow material) I have to stick with the blue and charcoal with yellow highlighting (as are my rig colors). Which one would you think I would look the coolest in ? Afterall, after safety comes appearance, right ?? See picture attached as well as my rig for matching colors. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBKid 0 #3 July 23, 2003 All blue body with grey forearms/lower legs. Just get a grey collar as well. Nick --------------------------- "I've pierced my foot on a spike!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 2 #4 July 23, 2003 I like the one on the right, or else the bottom left but with a yellow collar. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cornholio 0 #5 July 23, 2003 Good suggestions. However, I can see the yellow collar (or any other light color) getting dirty pretty quick, but that's just me. Hey b1jercat , sorry, but your avatar is bit on the small side to see any details. And Wow! Over 85% like my second choice. I actually like the one on the middle right, but if the skydiving community thinks the bottom left is the coolest, then so it shall be. I actually like all three of them. Thanks for the help gang!

rehmwa 2 #6 July 23, 2003 Strange, no booties, no grippers..... What kind of weird jumpsuit is that? just kidding, I have both suit and pants for FFly also ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanillaSkyGirl 6 #7 July 23, 2003 The bottom one with a gray collar! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Vertifly 0 #8 July 23, 2003 I think the bottom left would compliment your rig really well. The grey shoulder harness and leg straps are going to need a contrasting blue backdrop. Just my 2-cents. -DC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TheMonkey 0 #9 July 23, 2003 what kind of suit is it? --------------------- Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience!

Ding ding ding!! Why yes, they are. I have been communicating with Glen and Michelle over the past couple weeks and even talked to Glen on the phone last week regarding fabric types. They sent me samples and everything. I really dig the fabric they use, as opposed to what other jumpsuits are made of for fast-falling people. Did I mention that it's about .65 to the USD ? I don't see a review for them on the Gear section. Guess I'll have to put one up when I get mine. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!
