How To Pack A Parachute (First Person POV) Tutorial

[@DavidFerree54]

My life was dedicated to skydiving for years but it's been 10 years since my last jump. I could smell the fabric of my parachute while watching this.

[@Nikola-vs6fd]

im looking to buy a parachute and jump of building,all of them 100 plus meters do you have any advice on any stuff and how to get the balls to jump

[@beanieteamie7435]

​@@Nikola-vs6fd Please educate yourself and fix your attitude. BASE jumping is extremely dangerous and should only be done by people who have hundreds of regular skydives and the right skills.

[@Nikola-vs6fd]

@@beanieteamie7435 i mean i saw a few youtube videos of random people from my area climbing skyscrapers under construction and jumping whit a parachute,i know that it can be dangerous but i want to do it at some point

[@beanieteamie7435]

​@@Nikola-vs6fd Great! That's a fantastic long term goal to have. But you need to be aware that it is a long term goal. I have the same goal! I really want to do BASE jumping at some point. I just got my A-license after 21 jumps and I have a long long way to go!

[@connoreagle6843]

I watched an hour long third person packing video, and this first person packing video. Without even having my AFF complete, I already feel far more confident in my ability to pack when the time comes. Thanks!

[@SalvadorChangg]

I’m glad I could help!

[@Deterintetimmy]

I have learned alot from your viedos. I am getting my A license done in a few jumps and I am packing myself but this part is truly my weak spot. I am glad you are sharing your expertise so I can improve mine! I have already packed a rigg for a fellow student and I was worrying the whole jump until I saw him on the ground with a great smile and he told me my packing was more than OK! My confidence improved by a million after that.

[@BlackGryph0n]

I'm about to do a weekend of flying and jumping from ultralights at a dry lake bed in the middle of nowhere and this video is VERY helpful! Thank you!!

[@Spidrpvnk]

why are u here 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@the_nicest_guy]

That's gonna help me a ton with the POV thanks my man

[@SalvadorChangg]

Here to help!! You got this!!!

[@lobbyrobby]

Good stuff. I want to get my class A license someday. I've watched both of your packing videos now. At first I thought I'd be overwhelmed but I can see now with a little bit of practice how simple and easy this is

[@michelecherchi154]

Always a great video from such a nice guy, thanks Salvador!

[@wikamaro]

Hey man! Thank you for the tutorial. I will use it to pack my first rig for the first time and jump it tomorrow

[@SalvadorChangg]

Heck yeah brother!! Have fun, be safe and ask for help in person from more experienced people if needed

[@KeithTraining]

absolutely the BEST packing vid on youtube! first person view while explaining... love it!

[@Flaviviridae13]

Super helpful to refresh the packing steps. Thank you! Also, super helpful to mention the previous packing video, which I will definitely check.

[@bybonniehu]

Such a detailed video. Thanks for sharing! Always like watching how others pack :)

[@SalvadorChangg]

Appreciate the feed back, just trying to share the knowledge 🤙🏼 Blue Skies

[@tomharrington2889]

Hey, good to see you yesterday doing your packing nonstop. Y'all got a busy DZ!!!!

[@SalvadorChangg]

Hey it was a pleasure seeing you yesterday as well Tom!! It’s always nice to match online profiles with people in the real world if that makes sense lol and yes. It was a great week overall packing for Fly4Life Camp

[@polarbearal]

Loved my packing course last week. Watched your videos for some supplemental knowledge and really admire how neat everything looks in your pack job (not to mention it is so freaking satisfying!). I will apply these techniques when I go back to the DZ tomorrow. Thanks!

[@mysticizmo]

Clicked on this one right after the step - by - step one you did. Love the videos & they're so clean and well shown compared to others i've seen. Doing my full aff + A license course in a few days, can't wait!

[@SalvadorChangg]

Thanks for the feed back and I’m excited for you!! It’s an awesome journey to start and the community it great!

[@twostepRMX]

Thanks for this video! I’ve started learning to skydive and I want to be prepared for when it gets time to learn to pack a rig

[@SalvadorChangg]

Of course brother, that's why I put it out! try and learn as much as you can from as many people as possible.

[@MrChocoMoose]

amazing format. Love it.

[@roelmayol191]

Great video. For sure this will be my reference when I start packing my canopy

[@markrichards7164]

Great video. Nice to understand the packing procedure. Only ever done some tandem skydive.

[@SalvadorChangg]

Hyped man, glad you could see what goes into the packing process

[@youngnurse9994]

Great teaching video!! I could never do it !!! Lol I did a tandem jump there with Frazer . I had a ball !! 😁 Blue skies to you 💙! 🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂

[@SalvadorChangg]

Haha ayyeee congrats on doing a tandem!! Now you can say you know what it’s like!! Most people don’t have the nerve but you did it! That’s sick!!! Glad you had a great time!

[@youngnurse9994]

@@SalvadorChangg That was my second jump . My first was in New Jersey at Crosskeys. I didn't have any fun and "instructor " wouldn't even talk to me to explain anything to me !! I'll never go there again !! I plan on coming back to DeLand next year !! Hope to see you there !! 🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂🪂😁

[@koontz34]

Awesome POV video!! First packing video I've seen like this and one of the best. Keep em coming

[@SalvadorChangg]

Will do Rusty, I got you brother

[@Donbiggotees]

Always I wanna to know, how put it everything back in the parachute 🪂 thanks for you’ve shared this video!

[@SalvadorChangg]

Haha well now you know

[@cmassie1972]

No video out there which shows how to unfold from riggers roll to attaching it to container. Could you do this video? I fly a sabre 2.

[@SalvadorChangg]

Indeed I can and will. Roger that!

[@nebulaorion716]

ahhh now i understand where the pilot chute goes and how the container opens thankyou.. never knew the ball on the pilot was the handle or is it??? lol

[@SalvadorChangg]

It’s the handle, glad I could help

[@maxmichael5143]

I was taught to do single wraps on the primary stows with the rubber bands that go through the grommets, then double stow on the rest. Have you heard of that? Reason for a double vs single on the four grommet stows? Thanks!

[@SalvadorChangg]

I have heard of that, there are many different ways to pack, and there’s no “correct” way to pack. I’d say always ask why someone does what they do and see their answer. I personally feel double stows work better for me but it’s personal preference.

[@mottonomad]

Awesome, thank you very much for sharing this with us.

[@jmart4005]

Good job explaining 👍

[@Sardy540]

Awesome vid. Cheers brother.

[@SalvadorChangg]

Appreciate the positive support, hope it helped you out

[@Freesoulflying]

Do we leave the cells just like that ? Is it not advisable to give one-two folds on the cells for lesser opening shock?

[@jeffstarzw]

Superb demonstration 👏🏾 What size is that rig?

[@iankestle]

Super helpful bro!

[@SalvadorChangg]

Glad I could help big dog!!

[@pedeiksz]

Hi, great video! It would be awesome to see how do you pack a parachute after a cutaway. I really want to see this :) Cheers from Poland!

[@ericzalak4402]

Awesome video!

[@ksawery7575]

While making your second "S" when putting the canopy into the D-bag shoudn't you avoid placing the lines in a position in which they will brush the material of the canopy while deploying ? I mean if you make the second 'S' a bit lower the lines will stick out and won't be stuck between material

[@joshherman8558]

Thanks for sharing Bro🤘

[@SalvadorChangg]

Of course Josh, what was your favorite part / what part helped the most you think?

[@brucehood5529]

Salvador, what do you call the slink covers on that rig, and where can I get some? Thanks!

[@SirGandalfII]

Probably dumb question here but do the rubberbands snap off when you deploy the parachute? Sorry never been skydiving and just curious.

[@Holly-Conley]

This looks difficult

[@JayDee-xj9lu]

Have you got any idea of how many pounds of pull there is on the pilot chute bridle in free fall?

[@SalvadorChangg]

That’s a great question I think it’s pretty high!!

[@mason0674]

So is it normal that after you cock your pilot shoot and fold everything in the dbag that your pilot shoot becomes uncocked? Or is that my kill line getting too short? I had a pilot shoot in tow on my 27th jump and had my first cutaway. So now i pull the kill line out of my pilot shoot till i can and seems to work but i pull it past the colored part of the line

[@NikitaKyndt]

Why are you asking this here? Go talk to your rigger.

[@LemonGrass-s2u]

Gopro?

[@slowfaller]

Hoping to jump my own pack job after fifteen years out of the sport. I used to psycho pack

[@SalvadorChangg]

Psycho pack?

[@slowfaller]

KZbin it, you basically induce a 180° line twist, roll up the canopy like a sleeping bag, take out the line twist, and bag it

[@jasonkelley5394]

Is a new vid or a repost?

[@SalvadorChangg]

New video, had to make some changes/improvements 🤙🏼

[@jasonkelley5394]

@@SalvadorChangg cool.👊

[@jackreynolds1778]

How long does it take you on average to pack a canopy? Thanks for the awesome content !!!!

[@SalvadorChangg]

Anywhere from 5-8 minutes

[@brucehood5529]

Nice job, Sal. Quick question: Approximately how long would you take to pack a 230?

[@SalvadorChangg]

6mins

[@joshhart4931]

​​@@SalvadorChangg no way .... It would take you at least 360 seconds.

[@Pokitchange86]

Are you left handed?

Cudos to you i want to skydive but i i never understand how this works lol

Should’ve given the Chute a Elvis Karate Chop! “Look out man!” 👋Chop!
