Due to costs and liability, I cannot see this hobby taking off...literally. However, I have been wrong before. I'll be the first guy out there cheering the guy on, that has the sack big enough to go on that ride.

Am I the only one that instantly thought of cartoon "TaleSpin"?
Remember the character Kit Cloudkicker?

They must have a quick release system attached to the wing.

It would be difficult to control the chute with à wing trying to stay up while going down.

This is a cool thing but I prefer Jetman at Skydive Dubai.
