Description
The Fluid Wings SAW is a high-performance cross-braced canopy designed to deliver versatility, precision, and efficiency across multiple disciplines. Developed in collaboration with sponsored pilots seeking a wing capable of excelling in flocking, freefall, freestyle, and pond performance, the SAW blends advanced aerodynamics with intuitive control and powerful flare performance.
True-cell construction improves sail tension and aerodynamic shaping, reducing drag while increasing lift efficiency. The result is a wing that dives with authority, maintains energy through the turn, and delivers a crisp, confidence-inspiring recovery and flare.
Whether carving clean lines on final, flying dynamic freefall jumps, or pushing performance on the water, the SAW offers a sporty, responsive flight experience built for pilots who want one wing that does it all.
