The EVA parachute is a paraglider-type chute deployed on all kerbals in sandbox mode or high enough level in career or science mode. In the KSPedia it says that they are parachutes with extra strings for more control over movement. When an EVA parachute is deployed it will cause the Kerbal to go in a controllable glide, using the following keys for control: S: yaw up, W:yaw down, A:pitch left, and D key:pitch right. The D key is used to deploy the chute.

The chute somewhat acts like a hanglider, gliding down, picking up speed unless you use W to slow down during flight.
