Mercuthio 0 #1 August 26, 2004 Hey y'all! I've started learning how to pack, standing up. I've been looking for some sorta guide, like a step-by-step thingy, but so far no luck. I was thinking it would be good to read, to help memorize the process and such... Do you know where I can find such a one? Peace n Thanx! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should only ever feel like a dumbass if you get bit on the butt because you didn't ask what you thought was a stupid question. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

teason 0 #8 August 26, 2004 Ah yes, PRO packing. It stands for Proper Ram-air Organization. Unless you're sloppy in which case it stands for Prepare for Reserve Operation lolI would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.

skr 1 #12 August 28, 2004 >looking for some sorta guide I called PD (Performance Designs) and asked them to send me a packing video. I don't think they even charged me for it. I told them I was going to make a few copies to circulate among the people I help towards their A license. I also watch other people pack and when I see a good technique I incorporate some form of it into my own procedures. Skr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
