Re: [wallet55] Basic Base Jump with round (old)
I never saw that modification. It consisted simply of two panel cutouts. I know the first modded parachute was called a blank gore, implemented with a single panel cutout. Each peg line was connected to its side of the cutout panel and created a side stream to the right or left when pulled down to make turns. I thought the next update was the Double L. Interesting stuff.
