Description

Building upon the legacy of the famed Switchblade-S, this new FAI variant has already proven itself worthy of the name by winning both Junior and Senior qualifications in the 2024 USA FAI program before winning 2nd in Senior and 3rd and 4th in Junior at the finals in Pueblo, CO. If that isn’t convincing enough, this design then achieved a new Junior 1/2A record of 3:49 at NSL East 2024.
