My in-zone modem from OPTUS has shit itself after 7 months. Took it back to the store and it will be 3 weeks before they'll even tell me if it will be repaired or replaced. Of course loaning me a modem is out of the question - I might not return it - yeah! Not good enough. I canceled my service and demanded that the waive the early exit fee - which they did after much arguing. I then rang up OPTUS sales - rejoined the same service and they'll have a new modem to me on Monday. How mad is that!?!
Fire 'n' Ice: Gosh I had forgotten how hard it was to get into the MaxDL suit when it was new - the Hardcore is just as bad. Could not get it up over my hips - sweating profusely did NOT help. Scored two blisters on the tips of my fingers!! I'll give it another go later in the week. I know it took several sessions before I mastered the squeeze. Saturday I plan to don the MaxDL for my deadlift session - I wonder how long that will take!?!
Louise: Inzer do make custom suits but they cost $$$ But even then I dont think they would make allowances for 'headlights' LOL

Lucky you know your stuff with regard to IT! imagine how bad the Optus modem saga would have been if you were a 'lay person'?
I think all the powerlifting suits take some breaking in - always crucial to allow time for that when training for a big comp. No short cuts that I know of other than plain pain and strain! Let's face it - if they aren't tight, they aren't going to be worth using.My first ever suit was a custom made Titan. I did all the body measurements for it but it's the same old story - still tiny leg holes and tight and scratchy. I never use DL suits too tight as they can end up being a disadvantage, so getting into them wasn't as bad as squat suits. 3 strong guys had to help pull my tight, relatively new squat suits off me (even spraying cooking oil on the skin) and it still took about 10-15 mins of agony (nasty weals and chafing)... then total laughter cos the whole gym was fascinated!
