ridestrong 1 #1 January 23, 2010 I've spent more time on top of my new canopy tonight than my last girlfriend. Trying to pack my new (never packed) Safire2 into a brand new Vector3... Starting to wonder if I might end up with 'blue balls'.*I am not afraid of dying... I am afraid of missing life.* ----Disclaimer: I don't know shit about skydiving.---- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SEREJumper 1 #3 January 23, 2010 Looks like a smooth concrete floor. New ZP and concrete (well anything smooth) don't go well. Try it on some carpet if you have any, it will allow it to slip less.We're not fucking flying airplanes are we, no we're flying a glorified kite with no power and it should be flown like one! - Stratostar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cocheese 0 #4 January 23, 2010 At least your canopy doesn't ask "Is it in yet?" like your last girlfriend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be a long night of sweet, sweet packing. Maybe it will help if I light some candles.*I am not afraid of dying...

theonlyski 8 #9 January 23, 2010 QuotePsychopack that bitch for about 25 times, then roll back to the ProPack. I did that once cause I wanted to make the sunset load and it took me forever to get my new canopy in the bag. The opening caught me off guard, almost chopped it, thought I had a bag lock or something..."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy_Copland 0 #11 January 23, 2010 I always laugh at psychopacks, just watching your first one can throw you off guard like "what the fuck is he/she doing?!" Theres a real comedy to watching a canopy get rolled up like a sleeping bag. Just goes to show how well shit works.1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

BIGUN 1,486 #14 January 23, 2010 QuoteTheres a real comedy to watching a canopy get rolled up like a sleeping bag. Just goes to show how well shit works. You're right about it working, but I'll share a story. I too, was rolling it like a sleeping bag until at one boogie; a voice from behind says, "That's not how it was intended when I developed the Psychopack." So, I turned around to look and it's Beezy. So, I asked him to show or tell me the correct way. "Don't roll it up tight like a sleeping bag, cut it into thirds and lay it down to control with your knees." [EDIT: Basically, bag depth] Works LOTS better.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just what I was thinking? Why would his last girlfriend care about his new canopy anyway?... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
