PhreeZone 20 #4 March 14, 2007 Are you asking about how to pack a main or how to close a specific container? Are you wanting to know how to pro-pack or how to flat pack?Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And you're a brilliant soul that the simply enjoys being argumentative on the internet. So why don't you point him some where useful. He is a student with nine jumps. He is going to benifit way more from a hands on packing lesson from another experinced jumper. I would much rather see him learning this in person. How is this any different then telling a student to "ask your instructors""The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have some 100 jump wonders around here, they will do that in no time . There is plenty of packing threard around here, he/she can use search.

DougH 270 #7 March 15, 2007 I already did that, he can find packing instructions at the drop zone. Insert beer and out comes packing lessons. To the OP, in all honesty I am not trying to bust your balls. I first tried to learn packing by going to aerodynes website and using their instructions. I wanted to try and learn how to do it and save some embarrassment on the DZ. For me there was something lost in translation. I looked at the pictures, read the text but it didn't help much It wasn't until one of my friends who is a packer walked me through it a few times that I really started to get it. If I go back to the site the instructions seem crystal clear, but at the time they might as well have been a alien language. This may be ironic since I spend way to much time on this website, but I think a lot of things should be learned the old fashion way.
