#1)
After having done a line-check, set the
brakes as shown on page 15a.
#2)
Crouch next to the risers and face your
canopy. Slip the fingers of your left hand be-
tween the left-hand risers and between the
left-hand steering line and the risers. Do the
same with your right hand. The idea is to have
each line group and each steering line sepa-
rated. Grasp the lines as shown. Be sure
there are no twists in the risers. Start moving
up the lines, allowing them to slide between
your fingers. Push the slider ahead until you
reach the bottom of the canopy.
At this point, it's possible to determine if your
canopy and lines aren't straight. If there are
twists in the lines, this means your rig did a
“loop” through your risers at some point. To fix
this, drop the lines, stretch the canopy and
lines out again, and straighten the entangle-
ment out. Do a line check again to make sure
you have done it correctly.
#3)
The nose openings should be facing the
rig and the tail should be farthest from the rig.
If the reverse is true, double check to be sure
the rig is container-side up (the back pad is on
the ground ). If the rig is positioned correctly
and the canopy is not oriented as described
above, then the canopy was attached to the
harness backwards!
Starting with the end cell nearest your legs,
flake the entire nose with one hand as shown.
Pull each cell completely out, and keep it in
your hand. Then pick up the next, taking care
not to miss any until all of them are in your
hand. When you have the entire nose flaked,
tuck it between your knees and hold it there.
