Parachute Packing "Psycho" Pack Job Sabre2 150

[@charlesleeuwenburg9640]

I starting using this technique years ago after seeing an article in Parachutist. It's a simple method to master and an easy way to tame a new Zero-P canopy, It always was an attention getter when I visited new drop zones. Always had nice on heading openings.

[@dylanslater83]

After 6 and a half years I've never seen or heard of this until today, do you find it easier than a pro pack?

[@charlesleeuwenburg9640]

@@dylanslater83 I actually start off with the pro pack then once I've laid it on the deck, instead of folding, I roll it tightly so it fits nicely in the D-Bag.

I have packed my 190 Sabre1 like this for several years and have nice straight openings.

Thanks a lot! I've had problems with my packing recently and this video gives a lot of details I've never learned about and was not able to ask around because no one does psychopack.

Можешь объяснить, psychopack это какая то особая укладка именно sabre или она любому куполу подходит? И в чем преимущество?

[@terrty_net]

@@fujimatosa It works for any canopy. For me, it’s easier to do than the regular pack job, but most importantly, it gives consistently smooth openings, while the regular pack job, even done by packers, is less consistent.

This roll looks like ready-to-use line twist ...

Ha ha

Ok I can see why I don't really see anyone packing like this (I have previously heard of it though). Pro packing is good for almost anyone and psycho packing clearly takes more time and looks a bit more "delicate". No reason for me to switch or try alternatives and this coming from a swooper's perspective. I do like the role up of the tube, with pro pack it's using S folds which is kinda bitch to control with really big canopies.

[@winni1992]

from what was told to me psycho packing ist just another word for trash packing/ dont flake it just shake it and this here is nothing like a trash pack its all nice and tidy

[@701CPD]

We used to call that a "speed pack."

[@WashingtonRamosCastro]

perfect!

[@sivonparansun]

interesting so basically a PRO packjob except that you roll the nose cells / expose center cell and then you roll instead of S fold -- I bet it makes opening a little slower/softer

[@michael-ju8tv]

I'm not sure what makes this a psycho pack? Seems to me a rigger is doing a great job

[@craigyerger664]

Back when ZP just came out, there were no instructions on how to handle the slippery material, so master rigger George Galloway came up with this pack job as an alternative to PRO packing. Some guy walking by him said he was a psycho to jump that and the name stuck. Precision Designs packs all there chutes this way. If you jump a demo Precision Nitron or Xaos-27 parachute packed at the factory, you jumped a Psycho-Pack.

@@craigyerger664 Wow interesting history lesson, thanks

[@mikluvin4633]

Just curious .... is this guy still alive ?

[@jaketbrown23]

I am! And never had an issue with this pack style.

[@rickohara1721]

Nice smooth openings 😁😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@rickohara1721]

I used a hook on am arm fixed to a wall rather than over the shoulder. A heavy weight in the mains tray to keep the lines tight. Comes out the bag better than a side pack

[@northbaseuk882]

What a waste of time...

[@SkyWolfSkydive]

Nobody shows how it opens?

[@williambrennan7794]

Opens great.

[@flyingunicycle]

No point to psycho pack a Sabre 2. They are already slow opening already..

[@andrewr4792]

Too much fucking effort for a Sabre 2. As long as you keep slider up and tension on the lines it open the same regardless of how you out it in the bag. What a waste of time...

[@swansongBR]

Isso aí é "presepada". 🤨
