Frogger 0 #1 July 12, 2002 Hi Guys, I've seen several posts here from flat packers like me. So I've got a question for you guys. How do you think it would work rolling the stacked & folded canopy before putting it in the D-bag? This would be sort of like the rolling done with a psycho pack right? 2nd point: I've got a PA Falcon. They pretty much recommend psycho packing everything they make, so should I assume that my bridle is psycho "compatible"? Or more to the point, why is the bridle extension required when psycho packing? Blue skies, Frogger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadDog 0 #3 July 12, 2002 The bridle extension makes it easier to position the bridle attachment ring/link on the top, center of the rolled canopy so it (the ring/link) can be placed next to the grommet on the bag without any fabric being pinched in between. The extension also allows you to position the attachment ring/link properly without uncocking the pilot chute in the process. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirils 1 #4 July 12, 2002 The bridle extension also helps reduce shear force at the canopy attachment point. ... I personally use a bridle extension on all my canopies, but know of a number of people who have psychopacked without the extentision whth no problem. One friend jumps a Sabre and has psychopacked for years and NEVER has taken out the 180 twist and has perfect openings all the time! Go figure... It goes to show there is a lot of latitude in defining the "best" way to pack a canopy."Slow down! You are too young to be moving that fast!"
