One bench, built by a disabled veteran.
Sirius Design is run out of Santa Barbara County — disabled-veteran owned and operated, small by design. Founded in 2026 by CEO Orion Frederick, a nine-year U.S. Air Force veteran, it is a one-person shop: the person who designs your gear is the same person who builds it and answers your email.
Orion has been skydiving since 2023, along with his wife of ten years, who jumps too. AERIS came out of that time in the air: a need for a jump instrument that was actually legible mid-freefall — bright, fast and clear at a glance, when a glance is all you get. Every decision, from the display to the strap, comes from asking what a jumper really needs and cutting the rest.
The 3D-printed goods grew out of the same workshop, and merch is on the way. Most days it is shared with two dogs, who supervise.
