BigSky 2 #1 November 4, 2005 I have done a search and not found much except for a link to a gear site that dosent work any more. Does any one know if add on booties are out there. I just bought a freefly suit from Tony Suits, which is awesome. I have been doing mostly RW and dont really want to buy a whole new suit. Any Ideas?“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and their hopes and dreams.

airtwardo 7 #2 November 4, 2005 Keep your eyes out for a 'gently' used suit with booties...if your bio is correct, you've probably got some time before you'll really feel the difference a suit w/ booties makes. For me anyway, the booties boost is minimal at best. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #4 November 4, 2005 If you are planning on doing RW, get an RW suit. The grippers are there for everyone else, not you I try to do RW in my freefly suit but I was a lot easier to take grips on when I had my old RW suit. Just look for a used one and get it.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is exactly what I was looking for, $80 though. At that price I might just buy a used RW suit I dont really know why I thought they would be cheap.........after all it is skydiving gear.“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.

gstukey 0 #9 November 12, 2005 Try the Skydive Store at www.skydivestore.com. They advertise booties in their jumpsuit section and also offer to match the booties to an existing jumpsuit. I believe they do all the sewing and altering. Hope this helps and BLUE SKIES! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
