Giboline 3 wingsuit (240 klm/h & 3.7 glide ratio!)
Hi Everyone! Take a look at that new wingsuit. It seems to have some nice innovations built in. A zp-like slick fabric for less drag and a butt enhancement for a smoother back air flow (not a cosmetic improvement Tongue).

According to the report from the first test flight, the prototype made a record of 240klm/h horizontal speed with a 3.7 glide ratio Shocked. Anyway... some links:

Don't know...sorry but I'm just sharing the news
(not involved in the project in any way) but I guess you can ask the designer (in the blog link I posted).
