Crater Suit
Rated by: wlt96 (more about me) on 2009-09-03 21:34:32 (user reviews) Review ID:2235

Pros: Very light weight, but very durable. Perfect fit. Slows me down considerably
Cons: None

Ordered the Crater Suit and talked to Mickey, the owner and builder of the suits, as part of the process. The suit was made to my specifications and sent to me on time. I'm a large skydiver and required a suit that slowed me down to to about 108. My suit does that and more. Great control and very easy to use right away. Did not really need any "getting used to it" time at all. I can tuck everything away and scream and then extend the swoop cords and slow way down, pretty damn quick. I used this suit this past weekend and saw something I have not seen in long time . . . people falling BELOW me! It was a wonderful sight. If you need to slow down, buy the Crater Suit! It is a fantastic value compared to the others I investigated.

What can I say....
Rated by: ChrisL (more about me) on 2006-05-30 00:00:00 (user reviews) Review ID:1557

Pros: Great fit, comfortable, durable, looks great, reasonable pricing.
Cons: None I can think of

...I've just ordered my 3rd Crater suit. I've tried out suits from other popular jumpsuit makers and they didnt prove to be as durable as I had expected or hoped. They were shelved in favor of my older Crater suit which has outlasted them all including some time when it was being used by a friend. Its still in great shape and never been mended even once. I only ordered a new one because I wanted a different color scheme :-)

best suit for the money
Rated by: fallslikerock (more about me) on 2004-03-12 00:00:00 (user reviews) Review ID:957

Pros: fast and inexpensive
Cons: the 80 dollars duty to get it to canada

This was the first suit i bought as soon as i came off of student status and i am still jumping it a year later. The color is still as bright and crisp as when i bought it and the material is holding together strong even after a few wipeouts. The overall price with all the options(designs,colors,grips,booties,fully loaded)was still alot cheaper than any other suit out there. And the fit was absolutely perfect. I have recommended it to every one at my DZ and 3 more people have also bought them and they love them!
