  1. So my wing loading is 2.0:1 with my VC90. Ive tried packing it many different ways and the best way that i found was kinda like yours but i just role the outer cells on either side into the center sell next to the slider. Then I take the front stabilizer and tuck it in by the slider. I don't use the snaps either I just make sure the slider has been quartered well.
  2. Need help!! I just bought a Comp Velocity 90 with 500 jumps on it. It has a brand new orange vectran 500 lineset. It came with an RDS slider which i made one jump with it sub terminal and it was a great on heading opening but I am intending to use this parachute for work jumps and fun jumps and i didn't like the rds so i ordered the correct size channel slider with snaps. So with my first jump using snaps going terminal the opening was very hard compared to my regular velocity 90 but still on heading. Since then i have put about 30 jumps on the parachute trying many things to slow the openings down but I just can't get it to a comfortable area and I'm not sure what to do? I make sure before I pitch I slow down like crazy but still every time it sits me up fast and shifts side to side and then surges forward. Does anyone know why it would be opening like this? I also only pack for myself and i have been packing for 12 years I consider myself very neat.
