Eduardo 0 #28 March 15, 2006 Ouragan suit is worth every penny but a bit expensive. If you need something affordable (under $250) and still good quality check Zute Sute http://www.zutesute.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brabzzz 0 #31 March 20, 2006 Again, i'm also 6'3 and a beanpole. Submitted an order form for a Matter ProConcept suit last Friday - they look the business and like Sonics can be 'tight' to help with the fallrate. They're also European if that's an issue. --------------------------------------- Ex-University of Bristol Skydiving Club www.skydivebristoluni.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SimonBones 1 #32 March 20, 2006 I'd say going an inexpensive freefly whole body suit would be best. When learning freefly you will probably start sitflying (should anyway). To just start with freefly pants and a shirt (as you mentioned due to heat/humidity) you'll have more drag on your legs than on your upper body. This is opposite of what you want to start sitting. Not only that, you can't take freefly pants in the tunnel, has to be a full body suit. Really if you want to start learning freefly and you must wear a piece of freefly clothing (if a baggy longsleeve shirt and shorts isn't cool enough) getting a cheap fullbody suit is wisest. I bought from Kurupee, they offer suits starting around $180. Some have said nasty things about Kurupee but I've had a great experience with it.108 way head down world record!!! http://www.simonbones.com Hit me up on Facebook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjoseph14k 0 #33 March 29, 2006 I bought some Tony Suit Cargo Pants. It was easy as Cake to order them custom on line and the price wasn't bad. Very comfortable and my shirts never come untucked from them. Also lots of pockets to hold whatever you want. I haven't lost anything(yet) in free fall.

jdavies 0 #39 April 7, 2006 if you buy freakin suits you better know somebody with a sewing machine-they are cheap for a reasonQuote Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites OzoneJunkie 0 #40 April 7, 2006 While we're on the topic of freefly suits, I'm wondering about anyone's experience with 2 piece freefly suits. Do thes suit pieces attach to each other in some way? If not, what keeps the the upper part from moving while in freefall?
