packing_jarrett 0 #1 April 25, 2005 Yesterday morning my dad told me to vacume up the floor and layout the reserve as he left the loft, he came back and found it flaked and layed out about ready to go into the bag. He coached me through the whole thing as I even closed the reserve up.Na' Cho' Cheese Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickDG 23 #4 April 26, 2005 Assuming Dad's a rigger your being 14 years old is no matter as you did it under his supervision. However, you didn't mention if the canopy was ever inspected? And I hope he tells the customer, so he/she can share your joy . . . NickD BASE 194 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sid 1 #5 April 26, 2005 Jarrett, if Brett supervised it, I'd jump it (oh, who am I kidding I'd jump it anyway) but especially if your Dad supervised it Pete Draper, Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

packing_jarrett 0 #6 April 26, 2005 actually he's going to repack the whole thing it was just more of a training thing for me. But when my dad called in a few very experienced riggers they all said," just leave it the way it is"Na' Cho' Cheese Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

obelixtim 150 #8 April 26, 2005 Thats cool.....thought you were a newbie rigger...... When I trained, the unwritten rule was: "you pack it......you jump it"......both main and reserve..... Concentrates the mind wonderfully!!!.My computer beat me at chess, It was no match for me at kickboxing.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
