Nenesanteago 0 #1 December 5, 2006 What is the longest anybody has ever had to wait for a new suit from Bird-man? I order mine in last May and 'till this date I am still waiting for the suits, all I get from Bird-man is just lies when I enquire about it. Please do tell. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hjumper33 0 #2 December 5, 2006 Ive never ordered a suit, but my girlfriend bought me pantz for my birthday, ordered in early feb. got them in mid july, and they are hardly as complicated as a wingsuit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarkM 0 #6 December 6, 2006 QuoteFor what its worth I ordered a Tony Suit MACH1 last week Monday on a rush order the suit was shipped on Friday (4 days later) Wow. How much did the rush order cost? I wonder what their normal turn around time is. My PHI took months, but that was due to manufacturing delays on all of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course time will show, but I think you can judge already how seams are made, how the material looks, zippers run smooth or not ... any comment?

mccordia 74 #17 December 7, 2006 So where is the pics of you spread-eagle, standing next to your desk at work wearing your suit, with a coworker taking the photo?

pierre3636 0 #18 December 7, 2006 ill be honest - i got it and sneaked off the mens room to fit it (i work on a equities trading floor - bit tough getting somneone to stop talking or stand still long enough to get me a spread eagle pic ) was too excited. Quality looks really really good. Right up there with the BM and PF suits I have owned and seen. I'm really stoked. This thing is FAKING HUGE! i can't wait to go play sat ! I cant say the arms are bigger than legs or vice versa the total effect is just HUGE. I really think its going to suit ( no pun) my style of flying too - I like going super fast forward in small ways or alone but dont mind flying dirty as fuk when flocking bigger ways. Im pretty sure this suit is going to change the pecking order a bit - suppose time will tell - ill drop a post after the weekend of flying it. my first two jumps on sat morning at 5am are out of a balloon from 5k ... mmm wonder if i should take out for that ... ummmmmm....... YES!!!!!!!!!! hey tony - cheers and tx for the service - much appreciated ~ time is ~ time was ~ times past ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
