New Dainese Trickster EVO Kangaroo suit arrived!!

Will using DHL get you hit you with Customs for a race suit? Or should I use UPS?
 
So the purpose of the thread was to brag about getting a great deal on a suit, but not tell anyone the name of the website with the deals?

I figured the source was probably motocard.

Seemed odd to me as well. I've also used Motorama.it with success, although they suck at emails.

Oh boy. The purpose of this post was to advise you that kangaroo is well worth the higher price. That's all. I just threw in I got a great deal. So let me start over:

Hey guys, I got a new kangaroo suit and it's way more comfy and pliable than cowhide. Thumbs up on the roo :)

Lol, not bragging about anything. I'm letting you know in case you're wondering about kangaroo, it's very nice. No braggard here. It was hard to find reviews on kangaroo suits, so thought I'd share.

Reason I didn't say the website is because it's not an advertised price on any website. I sent them an email with an offer and they shockingly took it. It was their last 2014.
 
Hey Sergio
Nice suit
Are they 100% kangaroo, as in all the leather ? Or just some parts of it

I remember talking to the HELD importer in Sydney and he said some of his suits are only part kangaroo otherwise they are too expensive to make

i have a held suit and only the areas that are non impact are kangaroo. from what i heard (not sure if its true) that a full roo suit is only good for like one crash. anyway held is an amazing suit.
 
I bought a bunch of stuff from Motorama.it My Dainese suit and jacket were half the price of what I would of paid in the states...
 
Roo suits are supposed to be a lot stronger and lighter. The strenght comes from Less fat in the fibers than cows which means more tear resistance. Went down once with a roo suit on held up pretty good. Went down many of times in cow leather suits they also held up fine too. I prefer the roo only because its light weight. I thinks its more of a preference thing.

Yea it is noticeably lighter. Holding this suit up to my cowhide gear is quite lighter. And I can move all around while in it. Don't feel stiff or uncomfy. For me, it's a good thing I went for it. The roo "Team" suit is nice too cuz it has the Ti knee inserts along with the shoulder ones mine has. I like that look too.

I agree the roo suit is way more comfortable and the Dainese Team suit is what I wear. I do like the ti inserts in the knees and elbows. I just wish it had the water bag like the trickster in the hump, it will be handy on those long canyon runs.

Yup, the water bag is awesome! Surprised Team Suit doesn't.

Dude, you're a .... You ARE bragging about the suit. Just admit it. If this was to simply inform people of the comfort of roo suits, then why would you say how much you paid for it? I cant stand people like you. Fu@#!ng selfish prick!

LOL . I had one of those days as well . Hope you get better
