A small piece of gear can make a very big difference\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I love belly big-ways. I spent a lot of time and effort since this discipline crossed my path to become a good one. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

During the years I tried to become a “Ringer” (someone who can be thrown anywhere in a big-way at a moment\u2019s notice to deliver a perfect performance). I am an \u201caverage\u201d size female skydiver, not too tall, not too short etc, and one of the most important skills I learned is to dress for success. My weight belt is always in my bag because I know I\u2019ll probably need it (I have a sadistic urge to volunteer for base slots \u263a\u263a\u263a)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, in the only training camp I managed to attend due to the f…ing new presence in our lives I had the chance to try the new Weight Belt from Aerodyne (thank you Milko and Sian for the loan). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Aerodyne rigs come directly with a system on the rig designed to allow the attachment of an Integrated Weight Belt or a Belly Band with buckles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found the system awesome \u2013 let me tell you why…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
