PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING WITH YOUR NEW WINGSUIT
BEFORE YOU BASE, SKYDIVE. BEFORE YOU GET TOO CRAZY WITH YOUR COLUGO 4 (C4), TRAIN!
Even our most experienced team pilots need many skydives before they feel comfortable and
confident in new designs. These are pilots with 10+ years of experience, thousands of skydives,
and over 1000 BASE jumps.
Please take your responsible progression seriously: skydive your wingsuit extensively before you
BASE jump it, and train in your wingsuit extensively before you attempt any advanced maneuvers.
The C4 is intended for intermediate to advanced pilots who seek a high-performance wingsuit that
is suitable for skydiving and BASE jumping.
The C4 is a large surface area wingsuit that should only be flown by pilots who meet the
INTERMEDIATE-ADVANCED suit requirements described on the C4 webpage (and every other
wingsuit product page) at www.squirrel.ws, and www.squirrel.ws/wingsuits/colugo4.
Before BASE jumping this wingsuit, you should have at least 50 skydives with your C4 and be
supremely confident with its characteristics at all possible angles, speeds, and modes of flight. That
is our standard recommendation; some pilots may require even more training to become competent
in this design.
Wingsuit BASE jumping is an incredibly hazardous endeavor. Every year, wingsuit BASE jumpers
die from mistakes and errors of judgment that have been made many times before. No wingsuit
BASE jumper plans to die. We recommend a cautious and slow progression with an acute
awareness of your own personal limitations and experience.
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 wingsuit pilots, parachutes, all air-traffic, and the planet Earth. Skydiving and BASE
jumping are extremely dangerous, and complacency kills.
