The newest frontier in skydiving right now is human wing flight. This was all made possible only a few years back by a guy named Patrick de Gayardon from France. You may recognize his name from the skysurfing page. Patrick was a true innovator in the sport, always one step ahead of everybody else. The wing suit was his own creation. He put endless hours of wind tunnel time on a prototype suit before he took to the sky with these wings. Patrick brought the wing suit to where it is today - an efficient flying wing with an airfoil that can be customized in flight by the human body.
