Ryokeen Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Well frankly it'd be great to have one of these. I could find hours of fun things to do with it. but there has gotta be a set cheaper than 1,000 USD.It's not that fun... I thought about building a ste, but I couldn't find all the neccisary parts.Can you help me out here?Thanks!Aaron Needing to focus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UseoForce Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Hmmm...There's those redman suits like they use on mythbusters. I've used those before, they are pretty good. The only other one I've heard of is Blauer's High Gear suit. But what if:Fairtex Muay Thai Chest ProtectorFairtex Shin and instep guardsFairtex Thigh protectorFairtex boxing gloves or MMA glovesAny kind of leather headgear with full face protection.Century forearm protector (I forgot the name of the line)Pros: Good protection, much less than $1000 bucksCons: Get hit from behind, you're dead!That's the best I can do, sorry! If it works, use it!If not, throw it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacificshore Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 The Blauer suit is nice, but the price has gone up the last time I looked into one. There is also the FIST suit, but in my opinion, very bulky. Then you have the RED MAN suit by Macho. They too seem bulky, but lighter than the FIST suit. Every now and then I'd find one on EBay for sale. The unfortunate thing about self defense suits is that they are expensive no matter who you decide to buy. I think for the the best overall mobility, and protection would be the Blauer suit. Good luck Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2_sub Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I have a friend who made his own full body suit .. It cost him about 200$$ . Moon might shine upon the innocent and the guilty alike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted T. Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Don't forget Kipp's FAST style BulletMan suit. Pricey at $1000 for the training and $1000 for the suit.Everytime you decrease bulk for mobility, you increase risk. Nothing is perfectly safe. Good compromises can be made. The BulletMan is known to protect the neck when the face is punched full out but the knees are exposed.Compromise is the name of the game. The biggy for me would be the repitious damage to the brain from concussion... Ted TruscottThe Raising Canes Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
