ryanrrowland 0 #1 October 17, 2011 Hello! Over the past few months i've been purchasing all of my own equipment. As of now I have everything I need except a jumpsuit. What i'm looking for is something that will work with me (or at least not against me) regardless of how I decide to fly, be that on my belly or my early attempts at freeflying. I am aware that the ideal situation would be to have a separate suit for each. The second thing I need is a suit that isn't going to slow me down to much. I'm 5'9 and 130lbs and tend to fall extremely slow compared to some of the people I have jumped with. From what i've been told I need a suit with low drag made of fast falling materials. Any recomendations on a specific suit model/type as well as the materials to choose when selecting a suit would be awesome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PiLFy 0 #2 October 17, 2011 Hi Ryan, I'm new, but can help you this much. I'm also a lightweight @155#s. I used to struggle mightily to keep up w/200+# friends when I was only wearing shorts & a tee shirt. I couldn't arch hard enough. I bought a tight fitting Bev suit w/nylon front & spandex back & arms. I now have quite a comfortable speed range. I actually have to de-arch to slow down for guys weighing 250+#s... I'm sure more experienced fliers can more efficiently fly their bodies. Even so, they use the fast suits, too. Good Luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanrrowland 0 #3 October 18, 2011 Thanks a bunch for your imput. I've been flying in jeans and a Tshirt so maybe that's more of a contributing factor than I thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
