Paratower

Parachute Training Center: Edwards AFB Jump Tower at Six Flags Great Adventure

Paratower is a flat ride which consists of a tower with a series of radiating arms at its top. A "parachute" is attached to each arm by cables and slowly lifts to the top of the tower. The parachute is then released, offering a quasi-freefall ride experience.
