  4. i disagree; just ask the instructor that had both hips replaced at the age of 35.. Haha, you realise that your post in no way contradicts Normis post, all it implies is the instructor needs to... sometimes it only needs a hole in the ground covered in grass. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  15. do you have a link for that shop? i mean simply a work overall like a mechanic at a garage would wear; you can get them for real cheap and dont have to deal with the smelly ones from the dz. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  16. well then, go out and buy yourself one! if i were you, i'd go with a "standard" cotton one, nothing too fancy.. or just get an overall from a DIY-shop!
  17. Wow, you only have 15 jumps and you're already looking to do some freefly...ok, why don't you just get a Liquid Sky suit then http://www.liquidskysports.com/freefly-suits you seem to love the trolls; do you always put up a 2nd account or do you team up!? What a minute,, this is the second time this week i was called a troll. let me explain and here's how i see it: So OP wants to do freeflying when OP hasn't even been licensed. I think OP would benefit from excelling first in belly flying then over to freeflying. What happens if OP cannot control a freefly position, would OP be comfortable transitioning into a belly fly? maybe he would but OP would fair a better chance if OP had SOLID belly flying skills. My comment to OP was sarcasm. Where I come from we can smell the noobs..and if such noobs come out flying suits like LiquidSky they better know their $#i!. this statement stands for itself of how well you THINK you know your shit. and a suit really has NOTHING to do with FF-skills.

  19. i wonder that a lot myself; and then i think of the folks, and yes, in some cases it would probably mess up the perfectly fine-tuned, "scratchy-face",dropzone-bum with the money to burn for hundreds of tunnelhours.. that is SOOOO not acceptable! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  20. i'm under the impression UPT would put the control unit on the back if you ask for it. having said that, i understand their way of thinking and it does make sense. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  21. i think that's what i would have done.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
