Dear Finn, my parachute has 12 lines and a diameter of 98cm. There are three holes in it so it wont spin. r> BTW: I am 25 cm high and weights 160 gr. BTW: I'm an elk, high 32 cm and weight 392 gr (I like chocolate ;-) ). Because of high speed when falling I wear a leather made jacket and cap. Also I do have a pair of diving glasses (they are red and look quite cool).
