I have nearly 400 jumps, I am packing the parachute the same way all the time, never had any problem (with the exception of a few twists) and now this. It's Navigator 240. Any idea how and why did it happen? There was a strong wind that day if that matters (pilot said gusts of 100km/h at the exit altitude). Unfortunately the parachute was picked up by someone else, so no clues during inspection :-(
