Compared with other putters I have with a Turn/Fade rating of 0/0 to 0/1, the Parachute is clearly less stable; not so much that it ends up like my -3 Turn putters, but it's getting there. When throwing for more distance rather than simply putting, it needs a good bit of hyzer to keep from turning over and into the ground, though beginners may not have that problem. The soft, flexible grade of plastic maybe accentuates this as I think it's easier to torque the disc on release. The plastic has a good feel and grip, though, and looks really good (especially with the mulit-color tournament stamp). For regular putting purposes it should be great for anyone.

I'm a former ultimate frisbee player who loves his 1 speeds and catch discs. In my collection, I have a halo polecat, eclipse alien glitch, eclipse pitch , and now the parachute. All of these are awesome for beginners/people coming in from ultimate. 

The parachute itself is wonderful. It's the perfect stable catch disc from mvp/axiom/streamline. Now I can do a catch disc round with pitch as the understable, glitch as the neutral, and the parachute as the more stable one.
