Q: Where are EG Wingsuits made?

A: All our suits are made in our shop in New Jersey, USA.

Q: Why do you use parapack?

A: For both durability and performance.

Q: Can I buy the Rigor Mortis as my fist wingsuit?

A: Sure even if probably you won't use its full potential for a few jumps. All our suits despite the tremendous performance are very stable and easy to fly.

Q: What is your delivery time?

A: At the moment around 8 weeks.

Q: What is your refund policy?

A: 4 weeks from the time of delivery however we'd like to work with you to solve any issues.

Q: Do you have stock sizes?

A: Absolutely not! Every single piece of our suits is custom tailored.

Q: Can I demo a wingsuit?

A: Sure, there are some restrictions though. Just go to the Demo page to find out more about our demo program.

Q: Can I get a hook knife pouch on the suit?

A: We actually recommend to get a Captain Hook Knife. Those knives come in a parapack pouch (same material used on our wingsuit for a very clean installation) so you can position it in any location you want.

Q: Can I use the PC leg BASE pouch on the Rigor Mortis for skydiving?

A: You can, however you should avoid high speed exits and back flying while using the BASE pouch.

Q: Is the PC leg pouch mandatory for BASE jumping?

A: No, it is not. Some jumpers prefer the container BOC even during BASE wingsuit jumps while others prefer the PC leg pouch.

Q: Can I skydive with the Rigor Mortis BASE?

A: In most countries you cannot. The RM BASE is a non-certified single canopy system.

Q: Do I need a Rigor Mortis BASE or a Rigor Mortis for BASE jumping?

A: Granted that we do not encourage anyone to perform wingsuit flying in the BASE environment, all our suits are designed with BASE in mind first and they are all BASE "friendly".

Q: What is the correct leg position while flying an EG Wingsuit?

A: The leg position while flying one of our wingsuits is a bit different than other suits. The toes should be pointed sideways rather than downwards and the knees should point slightly sideway as well. This position creates the best profile for the leg wing.

Q: What are the requirements for purchasing a Tandus?

A: You need a very minimum of 500 wingsuit jumps and 500 tandem jumps. Note that manufacturer of your tandem system might not approve tandem wingsuit jumps. We also advice not to take a first timer on a tandem wingsuit jump; returning students make better candidates.

Q: What is your shipping method?

A: We ship our products via a verity of postal services. However a tracking number is always included and we aspect our customers to always include a shipping number when shipping items to us.

Q: If Willy Coyote was jumping a wingsuit, who would he get it from?

A: We did build a wingsuit for Willy and of course we had to put an ACME label on it!
