33) 

Now put one hand under the top of the 

bundle  and  make  an  S-fold  in  the  opposite 
direction  as  shown.  The  remaining  material 
can be rolled under the fold.

 

 
 
 
 
 

34) 

You  should  now  have  a  neat  compact 

bundle. 
Try  to  make  the  folds  so  that  the  bundle  is 
only a little wider than the bag. 

 
 
 
 
 
 

35) 

Place  your  knee  in  the  middle  of  the 

canopy to keep it together while you pull the 
bag over it. 

 

 
 
 
 

36 & 37)  

With  your  knee  still  in  place

,    

pull 

the bag over the canopy one side at a time.  
Hold  the  corner  of  the  canopy  bundle  up 
while  you  pull  the  bag  over  it,  then  roll  the 
canopy into the corner of the bag. This helps 
get  the  canopy  firmly  into  the  corners

,  

mak-

ing  a  neater  pack  job.  The  whole  canopy 
should be in the bag before you remove your 
knee.    This helps  completely  fill  the  corners 
of  the  bag  by  keeping  the  middle  com-
pressed.   

Follow  your  rig  manufacturer’s  in-

structions  for  closing  the  bag

,   

stowing  the  

lines,  placing  it  in  the pack tray and clos-
ing  container. 

  It  takes  practice  to  pack 

quickly  and  neatly.    Every  jumper  has  his 
own

  system

  to  make  the  job  easier,    and  

you'll  quickly  develop one of  your own.
