The UP Profile light, and indeed all parachutes, should be opened and aired for at least
a day before re-packing. This eliminates any humidity present in the fabric. The
packing operation is best done on a rigging table or at least on a clean flat surface.
The parachute is stretched out on the packing surface. Insert a temporary line in the
tabs at the vertex of the chute through the sewn-in tabs (Picture 1A). Attach the bridle
to the other end of the table, stretching out the canopy tight between the temporary line
and the bridle (Picture 1B).
