bak_peter 0 #4 February 4, 2007 The easiest way, without even leaving dropzone.com is to Check out "Gear" - Jumpsuits and Clothing on this website. Here you will find a lot of manufacturers of freefly jumpsuits Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

missann1320 0 #8 February 6, 2007 Don't buy Kurpee Suits. I did an entire weekend at Eloy... tunnel time and about 25 jumps (with 2 off landings) and it didn't hold up to how I thought it would (i.e. small snags or the elastic on the wrists being off). I just had Angela from www.freaknsuits.com design me an incredible one for only $240.00. I have heard amazing things about Freak n' Suits so if I were you I'd go that route :-)Smile! http://www.399FirstDates.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JGarcia 0 #12 February 8, 2007 Flying in the tunnel is MUCH harder on suits than regular freefall. Suits that can last 1000 jumps will fall apart in just a few hours of tunnel flying. That being said, I love my Ouragan Freefly suit (though it comes with a note that says flying it in the tunnel voids all warranties). Since I fly in the Orlando tunnel quite often, I had Angela at Freak N Suit make me a tunnel suit that I've put a couple hours on... tons of lift, and minimal drag!

gmarkwardt 0 #13 February 9, 2007 I've got hundreds of freefly jumps and several hours of tunnel time on my kurupee and it has held up much better than my freakin suit. so i wouldn't say i would not buy a freakin suit but i would for sure buy a kurupee again any day.......go figure.

Tiger 0 #14 February 10, 2007 Firefly suits for me. I used to sew, and the quality of workmanship literally had me with dropped jaw examining my suit after I got it. My rw suit from another company was great and what I expected, but my Firefly massively exceeded my expectations, including personalized customer service. That said, the suit with the most jumps on it was inexpensive, made by a local and worked just great. Better it taking the butt landings and grass stains early on. Save your money for a nice suit when you've got a few more jumps. In other words, don't buy a Ferrari if you're just learning to drive. Make your mistakes on something cheaper.

Unutsch 0 #19 February 15, 2007 http://www.specsuit.com/ I have mine for the last 300 jumps, with a hardcore stupid tall corn landing, some even more stupid knee slides, 4 washing (yeah, i know, my woman controls my life), and it still loks and feels like new...
