Wednesday 22nd of September 2010 Fun Video

Leathers,  Hazmat & Escape Suit... Played about with imovie to make this short. sorry about the choice of music (spanish flea) but it seemed like a good choice at the time. ;-)

Submarine Escape Suit.

It started with Wearing Leathers today, moved on to Hazmat and finally to a RN Submarine Escape Suit.

Out of all my gear when I have to answer the question.... What 3 things do you like the most? ,Erm.. That's a hard one!  First would have to be wet / dry suits then motocross and lastly this suit.

This Submarine Escape Suit is really two suits sandwiched together with what can be explained as the insides of a rubber camp bed, so it can be inflated. It's a restricted suit to wear  and you can get hot and sweaty quite quickly which adds to the fun of wearing it.

It was originally intended to be worn with nothing but speedo's under it but, rubber is much so horny. 

Used by the British Royal Navy to escape from a submarine at depth so the wearer would not get the effects of the 'bends'.

These suits do turn up on ebay from time to time but now go for stupid money. Mine is over ten years old and does require a new wrist seal has I ripped it off by accident this morning putting it on. Oops Doh! Looking on the bright side they don't cost much to replace just the same has a dry suit seal and it don't affect the way the suit operates unless you eant to use it for a flotation suit, which I have no intention of doing.

Hazmat

After wearing leathers today I got to admit I got a little bored so decided to take some photos of a new hazmat suit I've had for a few months now. This suit made by Resperex in the UK has built in air pump and can be used with or without a respirator. Size is XL and it also has encaputated boots. Worn today without over rubber gloves (but this is only because I would not be able to use the remote to take the pixs with).

Leathers

Its one of those things a 'gearhead' is likely to own, worn on its own or with rubber under its all good. In my collection I have 4 sets of leathers..... 3 1piece and a 2 piece.

Black is my colour of choice but I do have other colours to choose from ;)

 This is my RST 1piece race leathers.

European ABC suits

European ABC suits (NBC) have always done something towards me. NBC suits have been mainly in the West been constructed of fabric with have a carbon charcoal filter embedded, where as the European suit are RUBBER!!!  Either it be French, Russian, Ceczh or German Zodiak each of these suits are a must for a 'gear head'  even better when shared with friends.

Wetsuits

Looking back over the years I think the first instance was a wetsuit. I was 13 years old and was being introduced to surfing. I had to get a wetsuit, so me and a few friends went to Manchester to a water sports shop to try on suits. I did not know until this point that I had a fetish or what a fetish was. Cutting to the chase .... After looking at the suits all lined up on the pegs I started to get excited  looking at them and the smell...wow!!!! 

Anyone who's had a new wetsuit will agree that its a wonderful smell. I picked the suit I wanted and went in to the changing rooms where I think it changed my life!!!! Putting on the suit on the feeling was fantastic... a small boy with a large hard on and I could not understand why! Red faced and a shammed I could not come out of the changing room because my mates would of made fun out of me with a hard on showing through the suit. also the feeling of the suit next to my skin!!! It was also the very first time that I came and creamed the suit with such a large blow out!!! 

Oops has you say....I can still the assistant asking me if I need help. I took off the suit, got changed and placed the suit back on the peg!!! nicely creamed inside. I never got a wetsuit that day! But, I did get to try  other suits on :)  Then came the day when I got  my first suit. It's like anyone says you never forget your first time. I still blush when I walk past that shop. Its now a ski shop.

Leather, Bikers and Rubber

MX Gear

Ice Hockey Gear

In my opinion there is only one 'gear- head' sport and that's Ice Hockey'.  However there is also 'American Football'  or if you are in the states 'Football'! It's all to do with the padding! That's what gets me excited. Ice hockey is not as big as it is here in the UK has it is in North America which is a shame. But, never the less still a contact sport and there is gear available if you know where to find it.
