ABSTRACT:
Two ram air sections are included in a parachute canopy. The sections are arranged on opposite sides of a central axis, and face in opposite directions with respect to translational movement but the same direction with respect to rotational movement about the axis. The lower skins of the sections slope upwards from front to rear whereby the canopy rotates and the ram air sections create aero-dynamic lift slowing descent.
