kleggo 138 #1 March 6, 2003 i need a weight "garment" suitable for carrying 30 - 35 pounds of lead. i only do CReW. Yes, i'm aware weight can be added to the rig, but let's only discuss vests / belts / jackets for now. Who makes something suitable for this purpose? thanks, craig Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rigging65 0 #2 March 6, 2003 Flite Suit has made vest/Belt combos like this before. I'm not sure of the exact weights, but it was a lot! you might shoot off an email to [email protected] to find out more.

edenney 0 #4 March 7, 2003 Unless you have a specific reason for putting all that weight into one object, you might consider a weight belt and a weight vest. The belts are very comfortable, you hardly even notice they're there and they can easily carry up to 18 pounds maybe more. I know the vests carry 10-15 pounds as well. There are a number of different places to purchase these but they're not cheap if they're made specifically for skydiving (like anything else in the sport). The weight belts are $125 with 10 lbs. of weight I believe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggingstuff 0 #5 March 7, 2003 I make custome weight belts. The most that I've put in one is: with belt weighed 20 lbs it has 9 pockets. My sugestion would be getting 2 of them which I have sold toa few swoopers and I've seen them wear both. My price isn,t quit that high. If your interested email me or give me a call and we can discuss some options.CB Don't look for why it might work....look for why it might not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
