FAQs
How many people can play with this parachute?
This 9m parachute is designed to accommodate between 20 and 30 participants comfortably depending on the activity.
Is this parachute waterproof?
It is made of a lightweight synthetic material that can withstand light moisture, but it is not intended for use in heavy rain or for water storage.
Can I use this parachute outdoors?
Yes, it is suitable for outdoor use on grass, provided the area is clear of sharp sticks, rocks, or debris that could puncture the fabric.
How do I store the parachute?
Ensure the parachute is dry before folding and placing it into the supplied storage bag to prevent mildew.
Can the parachute be repaired if it tears?
Small tears can often be repaired with heavy-duty repair tape, but avoid over-stretching the repair site during future use.
Troubleshooting
Parachute feels too heavy to lift
Ensure the central air hole is not obstructed by balls or equipment, allowing air to pass through freely.
Handles seem loose or fraying
Inspect stitching regularly before high-intensity sessions and ensure students are not pulling at sharp angles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply unfold the parachute in an open, flat area free of sharp objects. Ensure participants are spaced evenly around the perimeter using the provided grips. After use, fold the fabric loosely to avoid permanent creases and store it in the provided bag to prevent dust buildup. Clean the fabric by wiping it down with a damp, non-abrasive cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can degrade the synthetic fibers.
