Once again make sure you have removed the packing line from the tabs at the vertex
of the canopy. If this line is not removed, the parachute will not open!
Insert the folded canopy into the inner container and fold up lines into ‘figure8’ loops
and secure them with rubber bands on inner side of container until you reach approx.
180 cm from bridles. Close the container with rubber loops and secure them with
approx. 3-4 centimetre loops made from lines. Force needed to open container (slip the
loops of lines out of rubber loops) should be in range of 300-900 g. The rest of lines,
approx. 120 cm, folds up into ‘figure8’ loops and are secured with rubber bands on the
outside of the container.
Take care to keep the lines well sorted, with each line matching the others in the length
of the loop passed through the rubber bands.
