They even show it in super slo-mo, and you can see those things fly right off his feet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgKoXzbw13E&feature=feedrec_grec_index Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon2 2 #79 May 10, 2011 QuoteDoes anyone wear a pair when you jump? I've got two pairs that I wear for most everything (except work) and want to wear them for jumping but just wanted to see if anyone else had done it previously. A few jumpers at my DZ jump in them. But like mentioned before, as a new jumper you want shoes that provide you some protection (in fact, in my country it's mandatory that you have "solid" shoes up to your A). Jumping with nikes for now is a lot more sensible. Save the fingers for later on. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I posted about halfway down that I had bought a pair of shoes to specifically use while skydiving, something that has a pretty rugged sole. I got to use my KSOs in the Denver tunnel but that's only because I was doing belly work and wouldn't be walking on the wire mesh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
