The paraglider wing(or "canopy") is a self-inflating structure consisting of a row of cells, most of them open at the front and all of them closed at the back, joined together side by side. Moving through the air keeps them inflated because air goes in the front but can’t get out the back. 8, record 1, English, - paragliding%20canopy
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Although the term "paraglider" generally refers to the entire aircraft assembly, paraglider pilots often used the term "paraglider" in specific contexts as a synonym of "wing" and "canopy," in which case it refers to the self-inflating structure made of non-porous fabric and not to the entire assembly. 9, record 1, English, - paragliding%20canopy

Un parapente est composé d'une aile, de suspentes, de deux commandes, d'une sellette et souvent d'un dispositif d'accélération utilisable aux pieds. L'aile est fabriquée à partir d'un tissu résistant et léger. Elle est composée de «caissons» dans lesquels l'air s'engouffre afin de lui donner sa forme. L'aile est profilée comme une aile d'avion, ce qui génère la portance du parapente. 5, record 1, French, - aile%20de%20parapente

Système 5-1. Ce système est caractérisé par l'utilisation d'un seul passeur. L'inconvénient de ce système est la diminution du nombre d'attaquants lorsque le passeur se retrouve sur la ligne avant. Cependant, cette technique est de plus en plus utilisé car elle facilite la synchronisation passeur/attaquants. Il faut donc que le passeur soit très bon, et qu'il soit encadré des meilleurs attaquants pour combler le problème du nombre d'attaquants. 3, record 7, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20jeu%205%2D1
