Okay, I got to fly it this weekend....so here's my analysis.

I did have one problem with it. The leg material came out of the stitching on one of the ankle cuffs before I jumped it. I had a friend of mine skilled with a sewing machine looked at it (Thanks Meili! :)), it was a relatively painless fix.

On to the flights. I honestly couldn't have been happier. To those who have yet to tighten up their old baggy suits, DO IT. I can't tell you how much easier it is to fly your body without fighting any material. Between the materials used and the gained flexibility from not fighting any bag, I truly feel that my range grew with this suit. Also, the power is pretty evened out. My last suit was far too powerful and made precise movements difficult. This one is the exact opposite. It has just enough power to make you move when you really want to, but isn't too powerful for precision flying.

Aside from the small build problem I had, I couldn't be happier. It fits great, flies great, and looks really nice in the air. All and all, I'm a happy customer. :)

I liked your suit, and other Matter suits I have seen, so I wrote Matter an email.

Cedric responded pretty fast and was very helpful with my questions.

How long did it take to deliver your suit once it was ordered? Did you go direct?

The team received their Matter Suits recently and we're all extremely happy with them. They fit great, fly great, have low drag and are definitely the highest quality suit any of us have every owned.

Will post pics soon.

The only thing that gets me is... how do you bring yourself to invest that much dough... I could almost buy a wingsuit for that much. Are they really that much better than everything else out there?

Umm...from what company? :S:D

In my opinion, the quality alone is worth the cash. That along with the fact that it flies unlike any suit I've personally ever flown, it makes it worth it.

You get what you pay for.

I've had a pair of Matter Pro Pants for about 4 years now, I've been really happy with them,
Sometimes i've often though they were too tight, but the guys at Matter in Empuria measured me up, so they must be right.

A couple of guys that used to be at Matter left to set up another company (kinda like the Birdman/Phoenix split)
So check out www.sonicflywear.com As they are pretty similar.

Base price of a Matter Matrix is $426 (no wings, no options at all, just a regular suit). That's why I asked if the quality is that far superior to other suits, if it's worth paying an extra 200 or so. So you would never go back to flying with any other suit? or if you had to you would feel disadvantaged? I'm trying to weigh this out in order to make the investment decision for myself to know how long I will have to save up for a FF suit, but don't have flight time in lots of different suits to compare firsthand.
