Compression Packing: Keeping Your Paraglider Flat
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- When you're on your own, it can be challenging to pack a paraglider neatly in a compressed shape for hike-and-fly. Most pilots use a concertina bag (saucisse bag) but this adds weight. Here's a simple system to keep the leading edge protected when folding your wing away into an ordinary glider bag or compression bag.

I'm between courses to get my paramotor licence and your videos have been SO SO helpful!! Thank you so much
PLEASE KEEP ON UPLOADING VIDEOS, THERE AWESOME
Another way for packing it while leaving the glider connected with the harness. I always fold it the old school way but then you have a few spins afterwards before launching.
Thanks for the video, Greg! :) It's almost like you've done that before. ;)
Try the compression bag by NOVA. It is awesome.
You deffo made that look easy 😂
I absolutely love watching your videos. One day I hope to fly together :)
This is a really nice tutorial, thank you.
I like all of your videos mate, you're amazing
THANK YOU
Very helpful. Thank you!
Love your videos! So helpful!
A bit messy in my opinion ;-) but if it's working, it's working :-)
I hear ya! It's best on ultralight wings and old wings (the air squishes out of them more easily) and this was just showing you a solution for stuffbag packing. The best and simplest is the concertina bag.
Is it ok to store the glider like that if you don't zip it up for the added compression?
Hi Greg,
I've been packing my wing like that since I got it as no posh bag came with it, but the problem is when you're in spain with strong dry grass or in pointy rocks area I'm always scared to damage the wing when pressing it on the ground to get the air out :(
Thank you
Another awesome vid!
Gr8 vid thanks
