I have been looking fo my first RW suit. My problem: I dont know what all the stuff is. The manufacturers i have tried do so many extras and i dont know what they are let alone if i will need them or if they are worth the extra cash. There are also too many coloour option : i have a black and red rig and i tried to design a tony suit but it just looked stupid. there was too much red but the other option was not enough red. Is there any where i can get a decent one 2nd hand for now untill i figure out what i need from an RW suit I got my freefly pants from Rainbow designs and there great but there RW suits are not so good

Dont judge a book by its cover!!! it took me 4 dedicated years to get my A licence due to army comitments . Most of then 97 jumps have been achieved in the last few months. I love jumping and its not just another jump,pull, and meet the ground. If it was then i wouldnt bother spending the money

you want to give the tandems a miss if you want to save some pennies. Its quite expensive in the UK for tandems. Save the money for you AFF as you will get in the sky on your own quicker. My cousin went to perris Feburary this year and loved it . Hes in Australia now jumping for a month

Having just bought a new rig i am also after a new alti but with so many on the market i dont know which will be good for me. I quite like the thought of the neptune but have heard alot of negative feed back with regards to battery life and being difficult to read in free fall. I think that it would be easier to read the digital display, any thoughts??
