Airblaster Freedom Suit - Men's

Another ripped seam

By Ranked #842 - Men's Jackets February 22, 2011

Chalk up another return -- ripped a 4-inch hole along the seam on the right side of my Freedom Suit this past weekend. Didn't last more than 10 total days of boarding. I am by no means an extreme boarder, so this is definitely a quality issue. I also noticed the velcro seams coming loose on mine too. Whoever decided to use single stitching along all of the seams clearly has never actually been on a snowboard. Dogfunk should consider pulling this product from the catalog until Airblaster can improve the quality.

It's quite a shame because the Ninja Suit + Freedom Suit was a great combination while it lasted. I will be keeping the Ninja Suit but returning the Freedom Suit.

I also had serious issue with the velcro on my suit. All the velcro strips that run up the main zipper came loose within 2 days of riding. The flap of left thigh pocket of my suit also tore away in one corner. Very cheaply made. Quite disappointed.
