freeflyfree 0 #1 April 1, 2014 Hi guys, My friends is Bolivia told me that somebody was constructing a wind tunnel, all local skydivers were so psyched about it, seeing all the images of the wind tunnels around the world. But now they are asking me to look for a company that sells the big baggy balloon suits of old...do you guys have any leads? who is still making them? I contacted a company in Germany...waiting for their reply...anything in this continent? Thanks Felipe-- Blue Skies NO FEARS, NO LIMITS, NO MONEY...

tunnelfly 0 #2 April 2, 2014 Ask the guys at Flyaway Pigeon Forge or Vegas Indoor Skydiving, where they get them from. The ones we use here in Switzerland are Rainbow Suits, which is probably the company you contacted. No.1 reason NOT to be an astronaut: ...You can't drink beer at zero gravity...

VegasBrad 0 #5 April 3, 2014 We used to get our suits from FreakNSuits but I don't think they are in business any longer. They have templates that we would love to get our hands on. Anyone have any info? Brad Hess GM Vegas Indoor Skydiving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoobrothertom 5 #6 April 4, 2014 The Pigeon Forge tunnel used to fly balloon suits of a sort. I don't know if they're still in business but worth checking into. Good hunting!____________________________________ I'm back in the USA!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflyfree 0 #7 April 4, 2014 Thanks, I got a reply from www.rainbowsuits.com they want $382 EUR plus Shipping. At least is an option. but will contact manufacturers here and see if they have a template stashed somewhere. Thanks. Felipe-- Blue Skies NO FEARS, NO LIMITS, NO MONEY...
