Paragliding not parachuting so yes, the chute is open when they leave - you are in a seat rather than strapped into a harness

Send me a PM Jon, we're always looking for victims

I was pleased that the basket wasn't big enough for more wings when we arrived, I'm super scared of standing on edges, next time. Pushing them out was fun though.

That was a pretty smooth jump by the last bloke.

I spent my entire career hoping I never had to use the 'chute which was provided.

Lee's dive was a cracker, Akis over rotated but it worked out well. Both had a 'chute that they didn't want to use, taking two reserves is a better idea.
