GooniesKid 0 #26 August 16, 2013 kvnhlstd *********Do you have a beef with LiquidSky? This is not the first time you have trashed their jumpsuits. I kinda do. But saying they are overpriced and overrated is not really far from the truth. You can get a quality suit from Bev, Tony, or even Deepseed for half the price of a LS. Let's see who usually buys LS (my experience and observations): 1. The cool kids..or those who think they are cool as shit because they know staff at a DZ. 2. The rich kids...or those who get mommy and daddy to pay for a LS tunnel suit just so they can compete in tunnel days (mind you half these kids don't even skydive). 3. The select few...or those who really truely have skills to pay the bills. 4. The non select few...or those who are posers (again with just alot of money to throw around when they could have gotten any other suit that does just about the same thing). it's like buying a Vector container fitting a 190 and having it embroiled Micron Series on the side wall. So who's really buying LS....mainly those people who have money to throw around (which really tells them alot about them) when they could get any other suit that fulfills the same role. Liquidsky is a status thing...just like how people buy BMW or Ferrari to show off. I can't afford one and I am jealous Just sayingFIFY I own a BMW... Because I can and I love driving it. It is the ultimate driving machine. Quit hating on things you do not have... oops maybe I am on to something. BWM is nice bro..i'll admit. I only have a GT-R and can only see the front of your BMW from my review mirror. Sorry bro, don't hate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #27 August 16, 2013 So, now that you've posted about the expensive car that you have, one can see that your hypocritical opinion about the rich kids who buy LS suits really doesn't have any merit since you're one of those guys who buys an overpriced car. It's time you STFU in this thread. From here on out, let's focus on helping the OP find the skeleton suit that she desires.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you think choosing a suit is hard, wait until you get the rest of your gear custom. You better make sure you can live with those colors for a while!

IrishDave 0 #34 August 19, 2013 FataMorgana Hi Niamh, Check out free fly suite from Kurupee called Calavera http://www.kurupee.com/color.php?group=suit&model=calavera. I think that is exactly what you are looking for Well spotted! Niamh... problem solved. PS: I did a lot of research on these guys last year (don't know why I completely forgot about them) and people who own them like them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
derleth 0 #35 August 19, 2013 I Agree with the Kurupee recommendation. I have their skeleton suit and love it - I was very surprised how nice it was built after I had read some poor reviews. It's really nice for the money and everything fit awesome. Double velcro cuffs, lots of material and looks wicked. ...

The111 1 #38 August 30, 2013 GooniesKidSo who's really buying LS....mainly those people who have money to throw around (which really tells them alot about them) when they could get any other suit that fulfills the same role. You participate in a sport where every single member, including you, regularly spends $25 for 60 seconds of fun. I'm not sure there is a better example in this world of "throwing money around." Throw some money at the jumpsuit you want, continue throwing the rest of your money at jump tickets, and then kindly STFU.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattjw916 2 #40 August 30, 2013 I have a Matter Pro-Concept freefly suit, EG Sky "swoop shorts", and some Tony Suits freefly pants that I absolutely punished on the boogie circuit and slid across every grass field I could find (and some desert too) and they're still hanging in there. The Liquid Sky suits look pretty trick to me. I was thinking about ordering one of their more subdued/classic designs. I hear nothing but good things about them for tunnel and freeflying.NSCR-2376, SCR-15080 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LyraM45 0 #42 September 4, 2013 diablopilot Quote It's time you STFU in this thread. Seriously inappropriate comment from a mod. I have to disagree. I think the mods should stand up more often and call somebody out when they need to be called out, especially if they have a post history of being a douchey troll (not necessarily a comment aimed at this poster currently in question, btw, but take it how you want )Apologies for the spelling (and grammar)....

skymama 35 #43 September 5, 2013 Thank you both for your opinions. As always, if anyone ever has a problem with actions by Moderators, they are free to write Sangiro or Meso with their concerns. A direct link to the post or thread is always helpful. Now, let's keep the focus on this thread on the skeleton jumpsuit the OP wants. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rocketdog 0 #45 October 13, 2013 Glad you are getting what YOU want & not letting anyone else deter you from the design you have your heart set on. That being said, your profile says you only have 55 jumps. I know for me, once I acquired more jumps in freeflying (my discipline of choice) -- like 100 --then I had a better idea of how I was falling in relation to others & what suit would be ideal for me. Just a thought that you might want to wait. Also, in waiting, I learned I could make up for being so light/small by flying my body differently too. I'd just hate for you to spend all the money initially then realize you need a quicker/slower material because your skills have improved. see the world! http://gorocketdog.blogspot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
craigbey 0 #46 November 6, 2013 yeshniamhmccHiya folks. Im on the market for a FF suit and have been eyeing up skeleton patterned ones. Anyone know of anyone who makes these? I found someone to make me a suit before but she hasnt done a skeleton one before and I'll either have to send her pictures of a good one or find someone else to make it! Any info for me? (: Still interested in a 'skeleton jumpsuit'? There might be one on the used market soon. You'll just have to wipe off the baby poop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yeshniamhmcc 0 #47 November 6, 2013 Just seen the vid... Luckily for me just last week I took a boring club one and altered it instead... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stratostar 5 #48 November 7, 2013 Well I kind of think they should be free to tell some one to shut the fuck up, if they need to be told that. If you or I can say that STFU stuff, then the mods should be able to as well. Skeleton suit, should be a slightly used on the market soon, I hear.you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #49 November 7, 2013 I'm going to lock this thread instead of leaving it open for jokes about one of our dz.com members and because the OP said she decided to alter a suit for herself anyway (in a post that is now hidden).She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
