CORVID 2
ALL-TERRAIN WS BASE
- Monochamber Design
- New profile & planform
- Same easy start arc, comfortable pull
- Easiest "big suit" in WS BASE
- Easy riser access
The CORVID set a new standard for easy starts, and has been used to open some of the most technical exits in the world. The CORVID 2 builds on that success with increased glide & speed, and the same ease of use.
MonoChamber Design: The new CORVID 2 has been redesigned to benefit from the MonoChamber, which allows even and consistent whole-suit inflation during BASE starts. The MonoChamber makes the pull even more comfortable, as air transfers easily between wings.
New Profile & Planform: Arm wing surface area has been slightly increased. A new profile improves efficiency while still providing excellent stability at steep glide angles and low AoA.
The CORVID series is for experienced WS BASE jumpers who want to jump short starts, glide far, and fly steep technical lines with ease & comfort. The C2 brings improved speed and glide (see Chris's 93m flare and 304kmh peak speed) while retaining the easiest start arc in the game (2 Second Starts (DL GPS) (& Video)).
HIGH ASPECT RATIO INLETS
The High-AR Inlet builds on the industry-changing innovation of our 3D inlet, with improved intake efficiency and reduced drag.
INTEGRATED PROFILE GRIPPER
Increases lifting surface without increasing the total surface area of the suit, while placing the pilot's hand in a more natural location.
SEAMLESS LEADING EDGE
Our proprietary leading edge Glide Skin wraps more of the forward wing chord for reduced drag at a critical area of the wing.
CUSTOM INTERNAL PRESSURE
Airtight zippers allow you to choose the amount of internal pressure in the arm wings. We recommend flying the suit with zippers fully closed for all normal modes of flight.
AIRFOIL CROSS SECTION
The removable airfoil cross section adds glide and speed performance and increases agility and range in any suit that it is added to. More information on leading edge foam
MORE POCKETS
In addition to the massive leg wing pocket, our nutsack, and the chest pocket, every Squirrel wingsuit gets an inside-arm pocket for GPS / sunglasses / your stash. If you need mega-storage for alpine missions, choose that option on the order page.
EVOLV TRAX RUBBER BASE SOLE
Our custom molded TRAX Super Sticky BASE Sole was developed in cooperation with Evolv climbing shoes. The tread pattern is designed for exit force traction, and the rubber is sticky in all conditions: wet, dry, warm, and cold.
Main Surfaces
Our main surface fabric is a 210D Rip-stop, with low stretch and an ideal rigidity-to-comfort ratio. Its balance of weight / durability, along with mechanical stability and tear strength, makes it the perfect mid-weight material for wingsuits.
LEADING EDGE MATERIAL
GlideSkin is an aerodynamic and wrinkle-resistant material that features a fine grain that is aligned with the relative wind.
Internal Ribs
All ribs are constructed from lightweight sail cloth, chosen for its ideal stability-to-weight ratio.
