6.
Place the curved closing pin in the closing
loop along ¾ of the closing pin’s length
making sure that the connecting tape is free of
twists.
7.
Remove the temporary closing line with a
smooth and slow movement making sure that
it remains under the closing pin as you do it.
8.
Between the closing pin and the part
concealed under right-hand side flap No. 3,
the connecting tape should have excess
length allowing smooth removal of the closing
pin from the closing loop.
9.
Lead the remaining part of the connecting tape under right-hand side flap No. 3 through to the collapsible pilot chute
pouch. The tape should be placed under the flap approximately 5 cm deep, thus preventing its accidental slid-out during
the skydive.
10.
Check the position of the closing pin and the connecting tape, and close the protective flap of the closing pin by easing
its edges under all visible main parachute container closing flaps.
11.
Check for any tape sticking out from under flaps.
12.
Check the position of risers along the sides of the reserve parachute container. Rear risers with steering toggles should
be placed possibly deep, as close to the bottom of the container as possible, with front risers on top. In the shoulder
area, risers should rest easily, with no tension or excess slack.

13.
Place flap edges (1) of rear risers under
reinforced pouches (2) under reserve
container risers.
When closing flaps, tighten the parachute
container arms to align them as a natural
extension of the reserve parachute container
shape.

14.
When all flaps are closed, the suspension
lines, steering toggles and main canopy
suspension lines should all be concealed
under the flaps.
15.
Shape the closed container by pressing on it
gently with your knees to form the container as
appropriate.
