These were pointed out to me by a PPG pilot.
Apologies if they are a re-post.

Has anyone tried this with their skydiving canopy?

That's very cool, but how would you attach to the canopy unless you are going to ground launch it.

Oops, I forgot to say something about pulling it out of your jumpsuit and trailing it from your foot.

It sure does look good attached to the canopy though.

can't see the videos at work, but I've been thinking about a couple of systems for which I will need some time and dedication (and thinking).

Got some inspiration from Picavet suspensions
