Cool Hunting

ESG Gryphon by Josh Rubin

ESG, is a set of wings for parachutists to use to fly as far as 40km before opening their chute. Developed for military use as a way to get troops under a radar, it looks prime to be the next extreme sport. According to Coolest Gadgets, ESG is already working on the next version which will have small turbo jet drives to accommodate jumps from lower heights.

Thanks, Ian.
