Calvin19 0 #1 June 27, 2006 So, i dont flat pack much, but my Blackjack is big, im little, i cant stand up, and i get distracted easily. so, anyway, i was flatpacking. and i used a small clamp (NEVER use small clamps) and i left the nose clamp on to hold shit together while i fold, i rolled the nose and just made the second fold onto the little clamp. Closed her up, gathered my shit, and counted my clamps. 4 big and one small. shit, there is supposed to be 2 small. uh oh. so yeah, we all know this has happened before, i have seen people jump 4 clamps in a packjob (onheading and clean) but, i guess im just a bit bored, so im going to go pack again, oh yeah, and i bought all new clamps today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyDaemon 0 #3 June 27, 2006 When riggers pack reserves they put long 'flags' on their tools (brightly colored pull up cords usually) to help prevent ever leaving a tool in a packjob. They also count all their tools at the end. It's not a bad habit to get into :-) -=Raistlinfind / -name jumpers -print; cat jumpers $USER > manifest; cd /dev/airplane; more altitude; make jump; cd /pub; more beer; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
