The reason the production Genesis gliders did not have a BRS is that
it was an option and no one ordered one.

One Genesis has been retrofitted with a BRS by the owner. It sounds
like JJ and I will be doing the same.

A BRS system large enough for a modern 15 meter glider weighs about 35
lbs. It also is rather tall and so having a deep fuselage helps with
fitting it in.
