kitof1976 0 #1 February 20, 2004 Hey I saw this suit for sale on Ebay... doesn't it look a little fishy that a wing suit ends up with a guy like this? Maybe someone might recognize this suit? Stolen gear? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3662258485 "We see the world just the way we are... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomAiello 26 #3 February 20, 2004 It's a really old suit. Original birdman, before the name "Classic" was used, back when that was the only suit. Can anyone tell me what the "S.U.I.T" on the label stands for?-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bodypilot1 0 #4 February 21, 2004 And just a note for those if your thinking of buying it. The single zipper suit is a BITCH to get your leg straps tightend with. Though the price is nice for the beginner. www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's an acronym I am curious about to this day.It's your life, live it!

TomAiello 26 #6 February 21, 2004 QuoteStolen gear? I got this response from the owner when I inquired where she had acquired the gear: QuoteI do not sell stolen items. I purchased the item from a used merchandise dealer who I regularly purchase from.

Guana 0 #7 February 22, 2004 I agree it is one of the very early suits. I have one also that I use for people to learn on. Works fine but I do agree that the single zipper can be a pain at times. Maybe some day these ones with SUIT on them will be collectors items..ha ha! Great beginner suit. Make sure you get the cables! Play Safe! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
