S-Fly Tracking suit
Anyone tried it? How does it compare to the other suits?

Re: [Vitriol] S-Fly Tracking suit
Saw it in the flesh about a week ago at a DZ in France. The one piece suit has a booster option on the feet that can be stowed away inside the suit when not required.
Overall build quality looked good, bit complicated around the feet with the option, material looked akin to earlier SFly suits, interestingly the proto used waterproof zips.
The "Promotor" reckoned that he could fly alongside the SFly "Expert or Verso" and that in the right hands it was compatible in performance.
Seems to be an option for those who don't like having their arms in a wingsuit.

Nice!
I'll be testing my new tracking suit next weekend. I'm not a fan of full face helmets, so I opted to find a an open face. Laugh

Saw a dude track to the house past the road in that suit of the high nose.

Re: [freeflaw] S-Fly Tracking suit
Not that I don't love s-fly, but some of their people said they could fly a verso better than an apache when it came out, so by extrapolation, that means this tracking suit flies better than an apache wingsuit!

Ive seen someone do that same flight in first generation PF suit as well, its that whole indian and not arrow thing all over again.

I hope one day people will stop using those "antishake" fixes for the videos.
Nice flight but the video made me dizzy.

Intrudair released their new Tracking suit as well

High style points. Looks like it would perform similar to the Tube3, judging by it's size.


The Cruise with it's large arms seems like it would fly a lot flatter then other suits

Re: [hjumper33] S-Fly Tracking suit
Had the chance and took the time to skydive the suit.
This is not a wingsuit, not by any imagination, call that Indian or arrow. At terminal, in my opinion this is a more technical suit to fly than an intermediate wingsuit and does not have the same forward speed or stability. Granted in the right hands and with experience the suit tracks, just don't try to base it from the box.
