headoverheels 329 #4 April 13, 2005 Folks at my DZ like them pretty well. I sent two e-mails, got no reply, went elsewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianmdrennan 2 #5 April 13, 2005 I'd stick with Firefly. Kurupee tend to be too baggy and I know of a number of people who have had issues with the suit and stitching. Blues, IanPerformance Designs Factory Team Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazydiver 0 #6 April 13, 2005 I think the suits are shit. Mine held up ok and looked good, but the materials they use are not the greatest and do wear out faster. Most companies will double stitch in high stress places, but kurupee doesn't. Lots of people have fit issues. I dont like the way their arm cuffs are built. I dont like the high neck. And mine flew terrible. Belly OR freefly, the whole suit would fill up with air and I couldn't fly my body, the suit pretty much told me what to do. Everything with it was a struggle. Definetly NOT worth my money. Seems like a good deal at first, but they are that cheap for a reason! Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kid_Icarus 0 #7 April 13, 2005 Thanks for the links. Most of them are at least 2 years old, and from what it sounds like they made some changes. It still seems like stitching and zippers are a problem. I guess that's all I needed to know. Thanks. ________________________________________ "What What.....

crazydiver 0 #8 April 13, 2005 I just bought my suit about 9 months ago and it was a piece of crap. I highly recommend someting else that will last for years. ie. firefly, tonysuit, ouragan, merlin Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
