In order to perform canopy piloting, you get on the plane and jump off just like skydiving. The good part is when you reach the land! When swooping, smaller and highly maneuverable high performance parachutes come with greater speed for potential use. At about 300 to 150 m/984 to 492 ft, it initiatives a curve, a so called Hookturn a nosedive.
It has a settling velocity of about 120-140 kph/74.5-87 mph. To end the recording speed of the parachute, it is placed just above the ground in normal flight position. The rate of descent is implemented as in the horizontal velocity. Thus haul flights of more than 100 m/328 ft are possible.
Swooping is the goal, then, to make the parachute by skillful maneuvers on approach the ground so fast that the screen slides parallel to the ground a horizontal distance as long as possible. The current world record is 142 m/465 ft! Do you think you can break it? Go ahead and try!
