michalm21 2 #1 March 7, 2008 Hi, I've been looking to buy a weight belt for some time now, but every DZ I've visited in the last 6 months did not have anything of the quality I want. So I narrowed it down to 2 choices - Leadbelly and Parasport Italia weight belt. The problem is, skydiving stores around me do not have them and I can't take a closer look. All pictures found on the net are way too small to judge the quality of the belt. Does anyone have pictures I could look at? Please? If not, does anyone have one or the other? Do you like it? Thanks for your input. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagicGuy 0 #3 March 7, 2008 I'll try to get a picture of my leadbelly. It's really nice quality and does the job quite well. However, the parasport belt is a bit narrower - kinda wish I had one of those instead! With 10lbs on you it's nice to have the smaller size. The quality of the parasport belts are also really nice.

x3mcam 0 #5 March 7, 2008 If you want the best money can buy, go here ( at least if you ask me) : http://www.lookma.de/Starting_Page/starting_page.html extremely comfortable with ergonomically shaped weights and a cut away option. thomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peggs82 0 #6 March 8, 2008 I got one of the parasport ones.... I am soooo happy with it. Very nice quality, with the weight included for a good price (85.00 from ParaGear). Much nicer than a the gear store bought one I had before.... Lead Bellys are also nice, either one you'll be happy! PS....baaaaaddddd JuJu to whoever "borrowed" my original weight belt and never returned it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michalm21 2 #7 March 11, 2008 Thanks, Phil! I ordered Parasport belt. MagicGuy, if for some reason I don't like, I can trade you for your Leadbelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
