The chute user will place pressure on the chute's interior wall with their leg's and arms, the more pressure they apply, the more they slow , less pressure and they speed up.

Layer 3: The Inner Layer - Support layer. This is the layer that is connected to the storage/deployment

device, and holds the chute in place; it can withstand the dead weight load of 5 tonnes.
