What is a "canopy"?

A canopy is the main fabric part of a parachute that inflates when deployed and helps slow the skydiver's fall. It creates resistance in the air, which slows down the descent and allows for a safer, controlled landing. The canopy is designed to catch the air as it opens, creating a large surface area that balances the skydiver and helps steer them in the right direction. The size and shape of the canopy are key to ensuring the skydiver has a smooth and stable landing.

Example
