JJohnson 0 #3 February 17, 2004 I like to have both handy. I suck at HD so wearing only the pants helps. If I'm sitting/standing I like to have baggage on the upper body. If the weather is hot, the two pice is great. If its cool out, the one piece is nice.JJ "Call me Darth Balls" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AntiPinkChrissy 0 #4 February 17, 2004 I have a 2 piece by FireFly and LOVE it. It is so easy to take off the top to pack and then if you want to go up in just your pants, you can. It looks just like a one piece when you are wearing it and I have never had any trouble with the top riding up. ~La La Gang Member #2~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #5 February 17, 2004 Both. Generally, I freefly in my BirdMan Pantz and a long-sleeve T-shirt, but I also have a baggier one-piece suit laying around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr2mk1g 10 #8 February 17, 2004 I think the concensus from here so far is therefore that you should spend it - ie, everyone's saying having both is better than only a pair of pants or a full suit. The whole point of the 2-in-1 is that it IS both. (its only like £8 at the mo anyway) See if anyone comes back with a comment on how good a 2-in-1 works as both though, maybe its a case of "jack of all, master of none"?

Zeemax 0 #10 February 17, 2004 eh? i was only asking! I was speaking to Dave Brown who had been coaching me out in FL and he said all in one. Purely for the simplicity.

skipro101 0 #11 February 17, 2004 I fall fast, so i need the full suit for many of the dives. I am making my own freefly pants though for those hott days... IF THEY EVER GET HERE!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottjaco 0 #12 February 19, 2004 In southern california, there are only a couple months out of the year where top would be useful. It gets hot, you'll want the option of just wearing the pantz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chapdog 0 #13 February 19, 2004 Lucky you. Zeemax is a Brit so whatever he chooses he will need to get his "long johns" underneath. I`ve gone for both but 2 piece works out better value ____________________________________ ----------------------------------------------- No really,if only someone had a camera!

zahiv 0 #14 February 20, 2004 I had a full suit and now I purchesd a 2 piece so on hot days I can jump with only the pans and a t-shirt, It gets very hot in the summer here in Israel. ppl on my DZ that have 2 piece are very happy about it. ...And once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been and there you long to return... blue sky Asaf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
