Yeah. They're going down a ski slope. Just think slalom skiing with parachutes.

I am guessing they fly straight in since increasing their speed would likely make them to flat to go down the hill.

There's another similar video on www.headdown.net under Movies -> Skydiving (the video with the yellow and orange canopy on the thumbnail).
