Over the past several years, I've been taking hang gliding lessons, and now it's time to get my own gear. Through the help of my brother (who is my hang gliding pusher), I have bought a parachute. Parachutes... you know, those things that help you to float down to earth if things go badly in the air.
I got a great deal on a used parachute, but is this really the place to save money? I suppose maybe some day I'll have the chance to think about that question very intently.
For graphic video of me flying to the ground...
For video of how it's really done...

The best part is, I am going to toss it before I give it to Rob for a repack. Weeee deployment practice!
Err... toss it from a static practice hang point on the ground... not in air... though that would be errr fun.
change .asx to .wmv in the link if it does not work.
