quade 4 #2 August 7, 2002 Just something I've noticed -- not a hard and fast rule, but . . . The crappier the skydiver, the louder the colors and less tasteful their jumpsuit tends to be. quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #3 August 7, 2002 QuoteThe crappier the skydiver, the louder the colors and less tasteful their jumpsuit tends to be. Damnit. You mean I need to go buy a new jumpsuit now? Oh heck, maybe I'll just go back to the hot pink student suits to match my skill level (and rig!) Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gale 0 #6 August 7, 2002 I'm not crazy about the teal. The red and blue are cool though. Maybe you could add another type of blue? Just a thought. You're the one who's going to jump it though so your opinion is really all that matters. I just bought a jumpsuit and I the reactions to it have been mixed, but it's mine and I LOVE IT!

quade 4 #9 August 7, 2002 Maybe THAT'S it. Ya just NOTICE the guys with the loud jumpsuits. The guys with the less flashy jumpsuits just disappear into the background clutter.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derekbox 0 #13 August 8, 2002 My suit will be done soon, as soon as I get it, Ill get some pics. I havent personally seen it, the lady who is making it for me wont let me until its done, but a few others have and they said it is fucking awesome. ;) Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoby 0 #14 August 8, 2002 I've started using the orange jumpsuits that my DZ has lying around while I wait to get my own suit. The disadvantage of jumping an orange suit at a DZ that is next to a federal prison is that everyone at the dropzone feels the need to make the "don't land in the prison" joke every single time. Also, I can't screw up landing, because I know everyone will know who's responsible. The upshot of it all, though, is that I've landed on my feet every time since I adopted the suit.

Derekbox 0 #16 August 8, 2002 Ohh yeah aboout my suit.... (Freefly suit). Base black. There are flames coming up the arms/legs. But that is where the "ohh yeah everyone has that suit" ends. The flames have been tyedied, they are the red/orange/yellow colors (think the flame like colors you see on mirage rigs) cept the colora are better. MUCH MUCH BETTER *MUWAHAHA* Yeah I ordered a Vector 3, all the trimmings, lightening bolt pattern and the lightening bolt is going to be tiedyed to match. You will all see... Derek P.S. A local is making my suit, she has worked for several suit companys and is now starting her own label, if interested I can put you in touch with her. Trust me you will be after you see my suit.
