Wingsuit/tracking suit – what do I fly?
During the Start-Up, we supply you with a wingsuit: a PF Havok Carve, specially fitted for use with our safety system.
When you have passed the exam and are a Certified Indoor Wingsuit Pilot, you may choose to continue using our regular wingsuit or check-in your private intermediate sized suit. Ask us if you have any questions.
For training in the advanced categories: Acro, Performance, Tracking Suit or Big Suit, we have a limited set of suits to supply; you should bring your private suit.
We have tested most suits available on the market and sorted them according to suitability and recommended glide ratio in the tunnel. The results are summarized in the Suitability Matrix.
