Evelyn 0 #14 February 18, 2005 Thanks so much for that link. I rarely pack for myself anymore, but have to get back into packing since I may want to travel to DZ's where packers aren't readily available. Since I know the basics and just need a refresher, that link was perfect. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MWGemini 0 #15 February 18, 2005 I've got a pack like a pro and fly like a pro VHS tape, but the problem si they are in PAL format. I bought them off E-bay cheap a while back, but can't watch them. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darrenspooner 0 #16 February 18, 2005 I learned how to pack by watching Pack Like a Pro. I watched it several times, packed my canopy several times, then got a rigger to check me while I did it. I did it right! I thought the video was just fine. Got one here if you want to buy it for next to nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
