    I pack that way and my openings are very soft and gentle. B|



    Thanks for the reply! That's good to hear. I was a little nervous about packing for myself, and on top of that packing differently than I normally would. I love soft openings :)

    yeah its kind of funny... there's a few people at the dz I pack for and they come with a stack of $5 bills and never pack for themselves. It give them extra jumps if they packed for themselves. But people like me envy those people who have that kind of money.

    No disrespect



    My problem is I would have less jumps if I packed for myself because I am so slow. I'm kind of a perfectionist, so it takes me more time just to stow my brakes than it takes most people to pack :P. So it's worth it to me to pay the packer and make more jumps in a day. Thank goodness for packers - you guys rock! But I am trying to learn to be faster, packing my last jump each week myself (starting yesterday :P)

    I just started doing the phsyco pack and it really improved the openings. It makes it way easier to pack and its faster. I think I set an unoficial speed packing record of two and half minutes. and yes it opened fine:D



    Is that what it is called when you roll it up instead of s-folding? I've heard the term physco pack, but didn't know what it meant :P. And you probably know way more than me about packing, since I hardly ever pack for myself :$.

  4. Since I have trouble controlling my canopy when preparing to put it into the d-bag, my rigger showed me an easier technique. Instead of s-folding, just roll it up like a sleeping bag. I haven't jumped it yet, packed it that way after my last jump yesterday. I'd never heard of this technique before so am wondering if anyone else has tried this and if openings were any different than with the standard s-fold way.

  9. I love to run. Love the way I feel during/after a run. But I'm not a serious runner. Only run like 3 miles a day. But may do the L.A. Marathon next year. Don't care about my time, will run and walk, just want to finish, just cuz it's on my to do list :)

    Prodigy. But I have a friend selling a "like new" GTi which I need to try to make sure of going with the Prodigy or not. Some of my BMI friends have said that it is very common to end up head down on exit with the Prodigy...

    One thing that is for sure, Ev, is that flying wingsuits is a workout:ph34r:..I'm so sore today:D But my birdie friends say it'll pass with a little more practice.

    Do it! You'll love it!B|



    Thanks Katee. I think what I will be demoing is a classic birdman suit. I'm a little nervous, but they will have someone coach me and go up with me, so not so scarey. But good to hear about other people doin it :)
