    I swear my d-bag is 3 sizes too small... everyone makes it seem so easy to just slide the parachute in.

    Shit he makes that looks easy. These videos have helped me so much though.

    Can't believe how easy he made that look. My new canopy feel like I'm wrestling with an angry anaconda!

    I prefer the reverse S fold. I could never get this method to work for me. The reverse S fold was a much easier way to learn for me when I started.

      Same here too, but I guess we will need to learn the other way too has this is a neater way to do it. :P

      @@SkydiveVibes have you ever tried a roll instead of a S fold?

    One of my biggest frustrations is the S fold and getting it into the bag, I'm going to keep trying and practicing

      There are two ways... A S fold or a roll. But I never head anything from these guys on my request if they remmomend it or not.

    It sometimes happens to me, after i bagged the canopy in the exact shown way, that i can see some of the canopy fabric through the grommet of the bridle, since i have a rather small bridle bag stop.
    Then I try to reach it with my hand trying to clear it. Is there a better way to prevent this from happening?

    What's with rolls instead of s fold?

      It is another method of parachute packing, it is called 'Psychopack'

    I am impressed by your packing-skills of a sizzling new chute. However, I always do the small s-fold last, when the rest is already in the bag. I have never seen a video of that technique on YT, else I could link the link. ;-)

      I also have used the reverse S fold technique on slick canopies. The downside I have heard is it's not as good for slider control, so I pay close attention to that. I'd be curious to know what PD thinks of it.

    • @SkydiveVibes
      @SkydiveVibes 6 років тому +1

      Same here, but it's usually a little less neat of a fold or opening. It helps a lot thought when the canopy is crispy and hard to pack.

      Skydive vibes! You should make a video demonstration of the reverse s-fold.
