Most of the parawing had been completed, moving on to the shroud lines next... This is a single skin parawing in the style of NASA parawings or Rogallow wings. It has one constricted cylindrical section and two asymmetric conical sections with a slight airfoil to the front of the 'chute. There are 9 darts that help constrict the front of the 3 cells and create forward movement through the air column.
