G.Anvil 0 #1 December 1, 2004 Sorry guys loads of questions; Is a precision pack the same as a psyco pack? Ive just bought a next nv3 container with a vtec190 main, 15 jumps on both. Getting the main into the d-bag is a real pain and leaves about 3 inches of fabric exposed . It all goes nicely into the container once its in the d-bag... Should I think about trying a precision pack or getting a larger d bag? Cheers for any help! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beezyshaw 0 #2 December 2, 2004 Yes, they are one and the same. As the originator of the psycho pack/precision pack, we only decided to change the name to get away from the funny looks of people when you said "I psycho pack" my canopy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masterrig 1 #3 December 2, 2004 Try, getting with a rigger or packer for help and tips. A larger 'D'-Bag, won't really solve the problem. The 'D'-Bag is sized to fit the main portion of the harness-container. You might lessen the hassle of getting the canopy into a larger 'D'-Bag but, you would have to wrestle the larger 'D'-Bag into the container.

bsoder 0 #4 December 2, 2004 I psychopack my sil230, I MUCH prefer psychopacking to propacking. Just make sure you have enough length in the bridle between the canopy and the bag, or get an extension. When I pack my wife's main (sabre 190) I start with a psychopack but then rather than rolling it I flip it back over and z-fold it because the bridle is too short. I still like it because I can open it up and make sure lines are straight, nose is really rolled so it won't smack on opening, etc. I get much more on-heading openings with this packstyle, that's prob just me tho.

G.Anvil 0 #5 December 2, 2004 Thanks guys, my bridle does seem a bit short for psyco packing, but the z fold method goes in really well. I'll just have to get used to the small d-bag! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
