smallest kite surfer: new record

So many questions
How TF does this wee line work?

quick check
electrostatics and high thread count of very fine threads feeling airflow as very viscous and using updrafts

maybe there’s a sheet cutting pattern which can make a stack-able set of these parachutes.
Would also need some bridle bonding tech like drop stitch between the layers

Very interesting. Let’s see if this could lead to AWES. Perhaps at a large scale it could be a networked parachute by itself, due to its string-like structure.
