Attention Fursuiters! I NEED your input!
11 years ago
Hai! :3
So, as Anthrocon approaches so do many questions in my mind! I need a word of advice from those of you who are fursuiters and have fursuited at a convention before. But first, allow me to explain my situation.
Anthrocon 2014 will be my first ever in my life, furry convention; so that's a challenge in itself. I own a full fursuit, consisting of the standard parts (Feetpaws, handpaws, tail, etc) which can also be worn as a partial.
Now, I have a question regarding my situation stated above: In your opinion, is it a good idea to fursuit for your first convention, or not to fursuit? Since this is my first con, it's really left me to start thinking how I'll go about it, and what's best thing to do in order to get a fulfilling first con experience. I'm wondering if fursuiting would be a good idea to do for someone who is a first timer. This will be my first time at a con and my first real experience with suiting around crowds of people.
Basically, I'm asking if I should take it slow and hold off on fursuiting for my first con or not.
What do you think? Please, let me know your thoughts in the comments! Anything will help! Perhaps, tell me how you went to your first con (fursuited or not), tell me some things I should know about fursuiting at conventions if I do decide to suit, and/or give me any advice you have. Like I said, anything will help.
Perhaps I'm just getting that first con anxiety X3
Before I close this journal, I should also mention about packing for the con. I began packing this week and by the looks of it, the load is already a lot to manage, and I haven't even packed my suit yet! So, that's something else to keep in mind regarding my situation.
Thank you for taking the time to read/reply and I look forward to reading what you have to say!
All help and inputs are appreciated :)

You're going to have a blast at AC whether you suit or not ^_^ I wish I was able to make it this year, maybe next year I can ^^
It's a matter of just being aware of yourself. Otherwise go out and have fun. stay in suit a little longer each time with breaks.
Find a suiting buddy or friends to chill with the crowds won't seem so bad. :P
Maybe dont go fursuiting right away...Check the lay out, explore the hotel/convention center as a human. Go the "first con" panel. But I guarantee within 6 hours you will be itching to be in suit! Within hours you will feel right at home. Please say Hi to me. I will try to help you out.
