Get ready to elevate your BASE jumping game with the all-new Gryphus by Exile BASE. Engineered for ultimate versatility, this state-of-the-art parachute is a game-changer for qualified beginners and seasoned professionals seeking unmatched performance and safety.
The Gryphus is meticulously crafted to excel in all jumping styles. Whether you’re doing ultra technical low-free fall, wingsuiting from alpine cliffs, or navigating urban landscapes, the Gryphus will be your all-in-one solution for anything B.A.S.E! It’s truly the only canopy you will ever need no matter what discipline of BASE you may pursue.
Its innovative design provides precise maneuverability, excellent glide, reliable heading performance, and extremely fast toggle response. Its semi-docile demeanor makes the Gryphus a very forgiving canopy if you end up in a sticky situation. Or for those of you who want to get down and dirty in terrain or fly more sporty, you will be very pleased with its front riser controllability. Oh, did we mention the flare power? Yea, it’s awesome…
The Gryphus is constructed of the highest quality ultralight materials paired with robust reinforcements in critical areas. This gives us the perfect balance of low pack volume/low weight while retaining structural integrity to handle the high forces imposed during the deployment process.

•Airfoil Design: With the help of Computational Fluid Dynamics our wing has been highly refined in every aspect. Our unique design gives The Gryphus industry leading glide and flare performance. You can even fly it backwards while remaining completely stable!
• Ample Reinforcements: The Gryphus is robustly constructed with reinforcements at critical areas such as line and bridle attachment points. BASE jumping puts extreme forces on equipment, which is why we over-engineered our canopy to exceed industry standards, all while keeping weight and pack volume to a minimum.
• Highest Quality Materials: We use only the best materials available throughout construction. Ultralight/low pack volume PN9 and ZP fabrics from Porcher Sport, France. Lines from CSR Braids, USA. All structural tapes and webbings are Mil-Spec from our USA based supplier.
• Leading Edge Slats: Our slat design and positioning were engineered to ensure optimal performance while taking advantage of the Venturi effect to speed up the air over the top skin. The added laminar airflow prevents the stall up to a higher angle of incidence and lift coefficient. Simply put, the Gryphus can sink into the most technical LZs on the planet with ease.
• Vents: Three strategically placed and sized vents encourage a nose-first, symmetrical inflation. The total surface area of our vents, combined with our refined airfoil provides rapid inflations. This means the user has immediate toggle response as soon as the canopy is open. This allows for earlier heading corrections and object avoidance if needed.
• ZP (Zero Porosity) Nose: Because the leading edge is one of the most critical parts of an airfoil, it is crucial to take advantage of the positive characteristics ZP provides in this location. Our ZP nose increases glide and quickens openings, while also increasing the performance and longevity of The Gryphus.
•Continuous Brake Lines: The upper control lines on the Gryphus don’t use loop-to-loop junctions. Instead, each upper control line is finger-trapped within the main control line. The result: cleaner line stows and a decreased probability of tension knots.
•Rib Crossports: Our crossports were carefully engineered to allow rapid and symmetrical pressurization within the canopy while preventing top skin distortion. This allows for fast, predictable inflations allowing immediate toggle response upon opening.
* Please upsize if you are primarily jumping into highly technical landing areas, if you are primarily jumping at high altitudes, or if you are an inexperienced jumper.*
