I'm no expert on the approval process but you look ready to rock and roll to me!

Have sent some photos and information to the GML for approval - had a bit of positive feed back so far!!!

Hey that's great Snibo keep me in the loop about how your approval goes. If there's anything I can improve on my forms I'm always keen to hear about it

Does anyone have any cunning plans as to how to prevent the shins from rotating off centre when walking?

Never had that problem myself, but as a general concept, a bit of strategically placed foam (probably at the lower end) will grip against the undersuit as well as help hold it in place by providing a closer fit.

Thanks Matt. I do have some running down the front of both shins. I will wrap some around the bottom just above the boot . That will also probably stop the bottom of the shin rubbing on the boot.

Probably either side of the midline is what you need. Work out where the space is in cross section, and fill that space.

Yup what Matt said. I've put a bit of foam on the top back and front to centre the shin and then I packed out the bottom front a bit works really well. If you need to I'd recommend packing the forearms/ biceps too

Sweet! Thank you gents. Will give that a go and go for a walk!

That did the trick - problem solved by the look of it. The extra bits of foam down by the boot stopped it rotating. I also trimmed a bit off the back behind the knee which helped with getting up the stairs.

Thanks again!
