gus 1 #1 August 26, 2004 I started a thread in the BASE forum about freepacking in to a skydiving container then I realised that you crew dawgs are probably the best people to ask. If you have any advice the thread's here. Thanks, GusOutpatientsOnline.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cwn 0 #2 August 26, 2004 I use the same method for folding a canopy with a tail pocket into a skydiving container for both CRW jumps and practice jumps with my BASE canopies. After you have the lines in the tail pocket grab the canopy by the tail pocket holding on to the lines where they come out of the tail pocket. This is so that the lines will not be pulled out of the tail pocket when you move the canopy. Place your other hand under the canopy towards the top to hold the packjob together while you place the canopy behind the container with the tail pocket face down in the main pack tray. The nose of the canopy will be facing up at this point. Now stow the risers and dress the nose of the canopy as you'd like. Dress the canopy to the width of the container. Fold the top of the canopy over so that it is in the main pack tray (i.e. fold the canopy in half). Now fold the canopy in half again so that it fits into the container.
