If you are in the market for a jumpsuit, or Freefly jacket and Pants, you can even get one absolutely FREE, when you buy your gear....Can't say fairer than that now can we???
I headed to the dropzone one very windy day... not many people were jumping, only tandems really going up, and 100 jump limit placed on all loads due to the wind. Having over 100 jumps I decided to chance it... first jump successful. I remember waiting for my next load and laughing at one guy landing backwards due to the strong wind. Second jump... outlanding.... and to cut a long story short I found myself heading very fast downwind towards a line of trees... amature object fixation at it best! I dont actually remember hitting the ground, but I remember landing short about a metre from being grated through the trees. I regained conciousness shortly before the paramedics arrived, and as they attended to my leg I remember one of them saying "We are going to have to cut your jumpsuit off to get to your leg". I sat up instantly cursing... "Don't touch my fukcing jumpsuit, I just paid 250 pounds for this jumpsuit" After a bit of arguing they agreed to pull it off... it was worth the pain :)End result was broken right femur, which now has a big pin through it :( So it looks like a lot of physio & tunnel training ahead before I get back in the air...So to answer your questions below:Has your Freefly Suit performed as you would have hoped and do you feel we have lived up to your expectations? Yes, from what I remember it performed as I had hoped in the air... what I can commend you on is that it can take an extremelly high speed imapct really well... baring a few grass stains... barely a scratch on it!!Were you pleased overall with the service you got from us? Yes, no complaints... job well done :) Keep up the good work.
