According to the parafoil with the inflatable air bag, the inflatable and deflatable air bag is additionally arranged on the basis of a traditional ram parafoil or a single parafoil, the aerodynamic shape of the parafoil under various wind power conditions can be ensured, and therefore the stability and the hang performance of the flying state of the parafoil are improved. The parafoil comprises a load cabin and a parafoil body connected with the load cabin through a plurality of parafoil ropes. When the parafoil body is a ram-type parafoil, air bags are placed in one or more air chambers of the ram-type parafoil, and the air bags are fixed in the air chambers; when the parafoil body is a single parafoil, an air bag row formed by a plurality of air bags which are sequentially connected in the longitudinal direction is arranged on the upper face or/and the lower face of the single parafoil according to the aerodynamic shape of the single parafoil, and the air bags are connected with the parafoil body at the co
