She probably would look good in anything, though. I also agree with Deuce, though. If there is any way that my body can look decent in my jumpsuit during freefall, then I am all for that.

Yes, I am sure that you all meant no harm, Kennedy. That's cool. I am just very protective of my friends, but you already knew that!
-
Welcome to adulthood. Yeah...what she said.

Low: Reading Lee's latest post... High: The thought that maybe Lee will cheer up when he figures out that we really care about him a lot...one can only hope.

Seriously, I cannot retain body heat well-enough...ever. It is why I need to layer my clothing underneath my suit. Also, yes, I meant that the large grippers slow me down...not the fact that they are cordura, although every little bit of speed for me helps. I have an amazing arch, but I am VERY petite and flying 4-way with the big boys. It's funny because my FF suit lets me fly faster than my RW suit, and I was told by a fellow tiny 4-way chick with experience that my grippers are catching a lot of extra drag due to my being so small. The grippers are not as big of a deal on other, normal sized people. Kris falls at a pretty good speed already, I think...

I would talk to someone who does this every day, like Kama in Ground Zero or whomever is in Square One. I would say to ask them all these questions. They will help you decide what fabric to use where. Call me, and I can tell you what I have been told for me. Of course, I only weigh 97 lbs., so my suit and my fall rate is different than yours. Each suit is custom made with different options, so keep that in mind.

Happy Birthday to Keith and the others!

*Psssssttttt........She's a HOTTIE* Lol...she was talking to me, but thanks, Clay. I will keep that in mind.

I have a nylon front and yoke, but my booties and grippers are cordura...damn, they slow me down! You don't have to get cordura booties, though, the norm is to get poly-cotton...I think. There is spandex on the bottom of my sleeves and on the back waist (on the sides). The back bottom of the suit is poly-cotton. Also, my suit IS lined and well-fitted, but it could probably be tighter...or so, I have been told. However, since I can layer up to 4 tops underneath my suit, I am happy with it a little less tight. I usually wear about 2 layers under my jumpsuit. Kris, whomever takes your measurements will help you to pick out the fabrics that you need. It is also dependent on your fall rate. How fast do you normally fall on your belly? Edited; I also have super fat grippers (w/ inside leg grips) and extra long booties with a zipper opening. Call me if you have any more questions!

Ok, fine. You go.

I have seen it and LOVED it. If you need a friend to go with, then I'll go!

I pretty much could tell that it wasn't them. I guessed that it may be you; however, I wasn't sure, and their name was being used...

Was this pic taken on purpose with the lady's consent, or not? If it is an accidental boobie shot, I am upset that it was posted. It looks to me like NEITHER Alli, nor Mel, but I can't be certain. Btw, you guys are weird, Alli and Meli are both very pretty in very different ways...
-
Then I must be just the right height. Modest, too! Edited: All kidding aside, Mar, you look amazing in your suit. I have seen pics of you, and that works for you and your perfectly fit body VERY well AND it goes with your personality. It is a great suit for YOU, but everyone is different. I think that my next suit will be even less colors than last. I am more conservative and small, though. Too many busy colors overpower me. Nightingale can go either way with hers, probably...

Yes and no. The purpose of every design is "form follows function", like designing a building. The reason for the cuts is first and foremost to fit to a woman's curves/body shape better and to make the suit more comfortable. That is always the #1 criteria of any good design. It is a bonus that these cuts will make our body look more shapely. The fact that you can color block a jumpsuit to death is fine, but I prefer being subtle with design. If you are short, like me, then you understand to not get carried away with color blocking. THAT is what will really ultimately defeat the purpose of a good design. Anyway, jumpsuits show a person's personal style and personality, so go with whatever makes YOU happy. (Yes, I do this for a living. ) Nighingale ~ Sweetie, why do you have two threads on the same topic? Just kidding...everyone must go to the other thread to VOTE!

I like Jumpsuit #4, but I like very subtle design/clothing for myself because I am sooo short. However, make sure to think about your personality/personal style, your body and how busy your rig colors are. It may be too subtle for you because some people look better with more happening on the jumpsuit. Edited: I meant #4, not 5. Yoshi ~

This is very embarrassing because I look like a total dork with my "superhero" poses in my pictures, but I have attached some very clear pictures of my Bev jumpsuit. I think that it will help you with your decision. You can see the lines/seams clearly defined because it is color blocked. I LOVE my suit, but I want to change the colors for next time. I can visualize it better by just looking at the cut on these pics. Also, make sure that all the purples and all the grays match (or compliment each other) from one fabric to the next. This is pretty important. Good luck!

WOW~ That IS fast for a girl! What were you doing to be going that fast? Aren't you a newbie? Also, how tall are you? What is your body mass like? (You don't have to answer that if you don't want to.) I'm surprised by what I just read. I need more lead...
-
But he said he didn't like that Thank God!!! I was just kidding, anyway, girlie...or was I? Really, though, I LOVE what you two wrote. Men SHOULD love us for our mind and personality above all else. YAY! ~

I am NOT a PERV... I am PERUVIAN...get it right, buddie!

Val, since you are trying to do something nice for your guy, I really think that you should go all out and serve the dish to your honey in this little outfit. I looove this outfit... Edited: Oh...don't forget to run up to him, when he arrives home from a long day of work, with his favorite beverage chilled, ready and waiting for him...

Uhhhh...I apologize again, Bob. I swear that I never even looked to see who the man standing next to Darcy actually was. I ASSumed that it was you and her in the pic, since you and her (and I) spent so much time together that night. Sorry... -
