dude idk. like, it depends. some folk, they still have some proprioception in their fursuits. some people, they take is as license to mosh and smash into people and "oops i couldn't tell where i was". I was in a mummer's play a few christmases. i played the dragon one year. Had to build the suit because the person who played it the previous year stole it. Made the head out of... fuck i can't even remember. A can? half inch foam? a hula hoop? some fabric and some makeup? I was inspired by Gamera but I think people thought ninja turtles. It was sturdy, must've looked pretty decent too because when i checked out the show 20 years later they were still using my shitty old dragon suit, just theseus'd with a few repairs.
