USER MANUAL

BEFORE YOU BASE, SKYDIVE!

Every new suit that you fly will require a period of adaptation. Learn to fly your new 

equipment in the skydive environment, first. Even our most experienced team pilots need 

skydives to get comfortable in a new design. Please take your responsible progression 

seriously: skydive your SUMO 2 extensively before you BASE jump it.

The SUMO 2 is designed for tracking. Because the SUMO 2 is capable of pressurized 

and stable flight at almost any angle, and is agile an maneuverable on its back, belly, 

and in more vertical configurations, only your imagination will define the limits of what 

is possible in this suit. 

Respect the limits of your abilities and progress slowly. Seek coaching and qualified 

instruction, and always maintain awareness of your surroundings. It is your responsibility 

to avoid collisions with other pilots, jumpers, parachutes, all air-traffic, and the planet 

Earth. Skydiving and BASE jumping are extremely dangerous, and complacency kills.

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING WITH YOUR NEW SUIT
