Firebird-R

The FIREBIRD-R is a wingsuit which offers an incredible performance range; flat glide ratio and maneuverability combined with harmony and total ease of use.

The FIREBIRD-R is the first all around wingsuit in the world that has semi-rigid Mylar ribs – every rib. You won’t notice them until you push hard, pull some G’s and take it to your limits. But when the time comes to go for it FIREBIRD-R gives you what you ask for… and maybe a bit more.
