Squirrel C-Race

Recommended Posts

Any test pilots or pilots in the know?
The C-Race seems to have a similar TS Jedi leg wing length and overall suit shape but the Scorpions steep leading edge arm angel.

The C-Race seems to have...



I believe the point is that there is no 'the' C-Race, there is whatever C-Race they are making right now. Kinda like the constantly evolving TS's of a few years ago;)

That said the one I've seen in the wild looked like it had a fairly longer tail and slightly longer grippers than my C2, but I didn't check it out too closely.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

The C-Race seems... like the PF Arrow, too! It appears the manufactures are evolving the suits towards racing terrian and each suit (tool) is used for a different terrian. A longer tail to tip down, and arms swept back for speed.

PODIUM FINISH FOR NOAH AND CHRIS AT US NATIONALS
10/05/2015
Big congrats to Noah Bahnson, and Chris Geiler, who took second and third overall at the US National Championships. Noah and Chris were both flying the Squirrel C-RACE. Noah received his C-RACE in Chicago during the competition and put approximately zero practice jumps on it before winning the first speed round and immediately moving to the top of the ranking, where he stayed until the formidable Mr. Mickle unseated him by only three-tenths of a point. It is also worth pointing out that Noah led the winning acrobatics team - a feat that speaks to his seemingly limitless talent in a wingsuit.

Honorable mention goes to Todd Davis and Per Bjorn Poulsen, both PPC newcomers, who made the top ten overall flying their C-RACEs.

Thanks to everyone who has supported the C-RACE in these early stages. As the sea-change continues in wingsuit competition, our early supporters are valued highly.
Check your ego at the door. Stay humble.

Cool and congrats to Noah and Chris. So what was the winner flying?

There were a handful of these at US Nationals last week and they did well in the hands of capable pilots. I fancy taking one out for a spin! Nice finishing touches and attention to details.

Edit: Oops. Just saw the promo posts about this! My bad. It looks a lot like a Jedei which probably explains why some pilots crossed over so easily to it.

Interesting dialogue about Tony Suits WWL President ~Espen Fadnes

Don't forget about Tony :)http://tonysuits-online.myshopify.com

Our current champion Julian Boulle, Mike Swanson and Noah Bahnson left Team Tony Suits to compete with Squirrel.

The Scorpion II and C-Race are very comparable suits and time wise, too but those top athletes from the sponsored Dubai regime....May have a chance by chance....
Lets go Team Tony; Its not the size of squirrel in the flight, its the size of the nuts in Tony! (aka its not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog)

2015 World Wingsuit League Champion Noah Bahnson! There was close competitors with PF Arrows "Nathan Jones and Jarno Cordia whereas, Espen Fadness and Rex Pemberton flew into second round with the TonySuit Scorpion 2.

Did the pilot or the suit win? Winner winner chicken dinner...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2XAZRHHP-g
There is many variables the suit, pilot, wind, and even uncertain feelings from step off. Proficiency would play a key roll...

Look at the likes of Jarno Cordia (PF Arrow). First season with World Wingsuit League; Jarno nailed third place in qualifier then raced against Noah during round 3 semi finals.

I think the most telling thing in the top 4 is you have 4 people who basically fly wingsuits for a living. Noah might be the best overall body/wingsuit/canopy pilot in the world, Julian probably is the most experienced wingsuit base jumper in the world, Jarno is one of the most active wingsuit skydivers out there, and Nate moved to chamonix to fly wingsuits full time a few years ago. Almost like the more jumps you have, the better you are at flying....
