Nice clean and fast pack job. All these haters in the comments aren't linking a video to their own pack job. You had that guy distracting you and you had to find a packing tool. The flakes looked clean too so it probably opened nice. Blue skies
What is your opinion on single/double stows on the locking stows vs the rest of stows? Looks like you single the locks and double the rest. Ive been double stowing everything… good video!
Ive been watching so many pack videos, im taking my AFF next month and cant wait to show the instructors, im gonna ask if they can let me do it first without telling me and see if i get it right
Reasonably quick, yes - fastest in the world - definitely not. Beginners need to properly clear the stabilizer before placing the slider. Don't pull as much material into the cone as it pulls the D lines around the pack job. Don't stuff the tip of the cone deep into the packjob - it prematurely destroys the topskin from friction on deployment. The reverse-s folding method shown is generally not recommended by most manufacturers because the air you squeeze out of the canopy can push the slider off the stops - increasing the chance of a hard opening. I'd say this is a bad example for beginners. Please refer to the manufacturers for good beginner instructions.
thanks for the feedback.. i have changed a few methods. Your correct about the stuffing the cone into the packjob to deep which would create fiction.. thanks for the advice i now position the tip of the cone facing out towards the top, which entails locks the grommets possibly for a clean deployment stage. a few people have mention that actually
i packed my first chute 3 days ago, it was a 230. took me a little bit longer, just under 2 hours.
Just keep packing…. U got it!
I needed also almost 2 hovers bifore 4 years. Now i am packing under 15 min and i cant belive i that 😃
Learning to pack at home.. 4 days in and I still haven't got it in the bag once lol. Brand new 210.
Most impressive part for me is you don’t even look like you’re rushing or trying to go particularly fast, just very efficient
Fast is sloppy.
Fast and good pack job, only issue I have here is the second s fold and the lines going deep in to the canopy. Potential line burn.
Impressive. Never seen one done so quickly and easily.
Thanks bud. Practice makes perfect

Bob Dylan thanks brotha I appreciate the kind words! I’ve packed that way for 1000 jumps and no malfunctions off it
That camera was getting beat the hell up lol. Nice job! Now do it with a tandem!
Easy… add a min..

I like to single stow anything through a grommet.. Its seems irrational to double stow the grommets.

Good luck buddy! I’d say worry about packing closer to ur A license though..
Did you start AFF? Looks like it’s been a month since you commented, just wanted to know how it’s going because I’ll be doing it in the spring :)

I don't want fast I want correct
Bradley Wedeman fast is correct.
crap job not pack job
its not a crap job.. its a routine, have had no problem yet..
Thanks for watching!!!
Well done and efficient. I see so many people taking forever to pack. It is a main, not a reserve pack.
HAUSS81 thanks brotha
Lol would have finished it b4 you even had the first line stow in 😂😂😂😂😂😂
we gotta get next to each other, then it be a race!!! :)
