“What is the difference between tape and piping?”
|
| A |
Our tape option is a 2 cm tape, which sits flat on your suit, it is ideal as a break up colour option as it is very noticeable. Piping is about 3 mm wide and sits up off your jumpsuit by about 3 mm, it looks like a more refined finish, but is not as noticeable as a break up colour. |

“What is the double lining option?”
|
| A |
Double lining is for heavier fliers who need a bit more drag on their suits to reduce their fall rate. The double lining is made of the same material as the suit, Grunt Machine, and is from lined from the knee to the ankle and from the elbow to the wrist. |

| Q |
“What is Grunt Machine and cordura?
|
| A |
Grunt Machine is what we call the material we make the majority of our suits out of. It is a poly cotton that is extremely hard wearing, we have tested this material and found it to be great for all of our skydiving suits! Cordura is a heavy-duty nylon that holds up well for the knee and butt pads on our suits. |

| Q |
“How do I stop the knees wearing out on my suit/pants from packing?”
|
| A |
The best idea is to choose the cordura knee pad option when you order your suit. It is NZ$25 extra to start with, but it protects your knees as well as your suit and saves you money in the long run! |

| Q |
“I live overseas, can you declare on the customs form, that my suit is a gift so I don’t get charged tax?”
|
| A |
We don't want you to pay taxes when the gear enters the country but... we have to declare the actual value of the goods because customs can ask to see record of payment and justification of the value. If the value doesn't match what we declared on the box Deepseed is then liable for a massive fine. |

| Q |
“How do I make sure that I am measuring myself correctly?”

Always make sure you get someone else to take your measurements after they have looked at the measuring guide on our website. Take all measurements 3 times to make sure and if you need more info, Skype us with video and we will talk you through it! |
