Meant for steep angle/high speed tracking in BASE enviroment, the suit was based on a design by the well known Norwegian group of BASE jumpers going by the name VKB

from the website:
TwentyG
The TwentyG Suit is based on the design of VKB in Norway. This suit is caracterized by enormous forward speed, easy handling and an easy pull.
The penguin-shaped wings create very little drag due to a rubber-cord which is incorporated into the jacket, running from one sleeve to the other. There is no air-inlet for the jacket. The clean and thin wing airfoil just comes from the tension of the cord.
