Sign the demo waiver
Our Smartwaiver form. It covers assumption of risk and your responsibility for the loaned wing — damage or loss is billed at retail, so treat it kindly.

Request a demo
Fly the wing you’re considering before you buy — skydive wings on our two-weekend program, gliders through us in the US or our dealers abroad.
Two steps
Waiver first, then the wing
We can’t release a demo wing until the waiver is signed — so start there, it takes a couple of minutes.
Request your wing
Two forms — one for skydive wings, one for gliders — so we ask about jump numbers or flight hours, whichever fits. We’ll confirm availability and dates, then arrange shipping or local pickup.
Some wings — the HK3 included — need references first.
How it works
Skydive wing demo terms
Gliders, speed wings and mini-wings: see the Glider tab in the request form.
- A demo is not a rental: you pay nothing to fly the wing. The $95 covers shipping, out to you and back to us.
- Demos at our location in DeLand, Florida are free of charge.
- The demos are set up on risers; you use your pilot chute and deployment bag. Attach to your rig, pack up, and get in the air.
- Demo shipping is currently available in the Continental USA only.
- Complete the waiver first, then the wing request form.
- Please confirm with us before shipping a demo back, so we can confirm the address and have someone expecting it.

Waiver first
The demo waiver must be completed before the wing request form. Demo wings are released only to appropriately trained, current and rated pilots. Some wings — including the HK3 — require references before a demo is approved.
Demo request
Pick the side that matches what you fly — the two forms ask different experience questions, and each one reaches the right person here.
Glider and speed-wing demos: use the Glider tab above, or email glide@fluidwings.com.
Glider, speed wing & parakite demos — through our dealers
Our dealers and schools fly Fluid gliders every day. They are the best people to put you under the right wing, on a site they know, with someone there to brief you. Find one near you on the map and contact them directly: they arrange the demo with you.
The two-weekend, $95-shipping program on this page is for skydive wings only.
Find a dealer for a demo
Dealers arrange demos directly; what they offer, and any cost, varies by dealer.
No dealer near you?
Send us your request below. It goes to glide@fluidwings.com, and we will put you in touch with the dealer nearest you or arrange the demo with you.

Risk Warning
Skydiving, parachuting, speed flying and paragliding are dangerous activities that can result in serious injury or death. Fluid Wings equipment must only be flown by appropriately trained, current and rated pilots, and must be inspected, maintained and packed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Wing performance varies with wing loading and size — the information on this page is a general guide only. Obtain advice from a qualified professional to confirm a wing is suitable for your intended use and skill level. Fluid Wings LLC does not provide that advice, and this page must not be used to determine acceptable maximum loading (suspended weight) for a wing.
