Packing a Sabre2 Parachute

[@GregsDiner]

This is in my opinion the beat packing tutorial on youtube. Detailed and well explained.

[@Dionisio181]

Have you seen Nick Grillets PD pack job videos? Better than this!

[@marvinrse9182]

absolutely agree, funny enough my first main is a sabre 2 170. Gonna have to learn packing this thing now

[@DarekB007]

@@Dionisio181 Also agree. This one is good but i prefer Nick's pack job intro.

[@rosalynpergande9072]

Nice brother. I pulled up this video to teach my friend and daughter how to pack a Sabre 2. Long time no see man. Blue skies!!

[@F8LDragon2]

As a beginner, I totally half assed my few packing jobs so far before watching this. Glad they’ve opened for me. Taking notes

[@stevehuggett2098]

I'm with Jonas. I've never seen a better pack tutorial. Well done.

[@skydiverbob1]

That's definitely the best pack-job tutorial I have seen since I started jumping May 17, 1982. I don't jump anymore. But I do miss it. I jumped the Sabre2 150 for a bunch of years. Thank you for such an awesome presentation. You had me mesmerized!!!

[@mjsp8]

Appreciate guidance direct from the manufacturer. Will follow this guide for my own Sabre2! 🤙

[@FloridaMan786]

Never been sky diving before, but I am curious how to pack a shoot. 😂

[@aprilpalugod7041]

only a newbie. have been watching a few packing vids. this is by far the neatest and detailed😁 thanks for that

[@leofandersoniii]

Great video, do you have the sequel showing the bag being stowed?

[@Josh-qr4gi]

This was an awesome video, I really appreciate your delivery of how the pack... definitely top tier material! Thank you!

[@fridafeline]

Great tutorial!! Is there any difference in packing a Sabre 2 and a Pulse canopy?

[@skydiverclassc2031]

One thing I like to do is check the locking stows before getting started flattening the canopy. It sucks to get yourself committed to folding up and find out that you have to run get another stow.

[@patricioelosua5886]

Im doing this with a sabre 2 170.. I thought yours was smaller then you said its a 170.. haha you make it look so easy!

[@nicopaulo2798]

Thanks for this video, well explained et great packing😉 Thanks for upload it 👍😀

[@dhenion]

Excellent video - thank you! One question though - I'm surprised you didn't really do anything with the fabric for the brakes before wrapping it all up with the tail. I've seen some people alternate fold/flake them over each other towards the center - but just leaving them as-is is recommended?

[@mattgaetz5548]

I was wondering the same thing. I was taught to tuck the flaked ends into the centre to help avoid a line over malfunction. Then pull up tail as he did. It would be interesting if Beau could clarify this step.

[@MrUSApatriot01]

@@mattgaetz5548 just make sure your lines stay in the center of the pack job, folding the tail to the center or leaving them like beau has them doesn't make a difference.

[@deanmiles3505]

Excellent job / video. Take care, Be safe.

[@mrwiseass712]

A great video!! been packing according to this video for a while and great openings

[@jusky40]

Hi. Are the folds at 11:45 helping in slowing down the opening sequence? What does it cause when you do tight folds? Thanks

[@markhajdari1273]

Good job on explaining it

[@cloudsbutterfly]

NICE PACKING TECHNIQUE DUDE !!! THKXS

[@martwald]

Great up to 20:00 and then I am clearly special for the state it ends up in

[@lavideogoprodujour1052]

Good packing job.

[@jeebeevills]

Wow I love you channel very Informative I am a blogger also and I have a train I ng in military but I want to learn sky diving

[@jamesleem.d.7442]

I also noted that you NEVER laid prone on the pack job to push air out of the cocooned canopy. I think that your strategy of using a lower leg to put pressure on the pack job after you have "stripped out air" with alternating forearms is perhaps the critical part of your modus operandi. Secondarily, there was that other important point you made about sizing properly the first fold at the slider grommets somewhere in a tight range between "too big" and "too small". Everybody can appreciate that making that fold too small would be bad, but hardly anybody seems to mention that making it too large also can lead to very certain doom when the final S-fold is attempted --- hardly any of the big shots around here in MN ever make that particular point to earnest newbies floundering on the packing floor. Are beginners allowed to suffer just for the apparent enjoyment of silent, sadistic, and sideline elders ? Thanks for putting this video online.

[@pastadrmartinssempa6295]

Dude that looks so easy... Why it's never working on my Sabre 2 😢

[@austinicke3285]

When you make your first “S fold” you’re pulling from the lines, wouldn’t that drag your rig on the ground? I love that technique better that starting at the top, but I’m concerned about dragging my rig on the rings.

[@Marcosdaemon]

There are some fabrics you can get to place the rig while folding the parachute. Then you can drag the rig without any risks 👍🏽 After you stowed the lines you just remove the fabric. It has some velcros to secure it

[@F8LDragon2]

I see people dragging their rigs all the time. Depending on the packing surface it could create friction. I would guess to say it’s not recommended but certainly not something that’s very frowned upon

[@claytonlachance4920]

Kinda late.. but you could always throw it on one of those things that goes on the bottom of barrel trash cans. They are like $15

[@AntonyRabey]

I use a purpose build "Packing mat" it attaches to the rig and then can be dragged, I would not drag container accros the floor without it.

[@ayybby7595]

Could you explain why you don't push the nose in, not neccessarily rolling it or pushing it in deep?

[@Dionisio181]

Just leave it like that, rolling the nose does not will softener the opening, straight nose will lead the canopy to a on heading opening, thats the reason. and the only device that will soft your opening is the slider, do what he did with the slider, with the closing tail and with the nose and test it. You will see the difference, i did and just realize they are 100% right.

[@andrewr4792]

If you push the nose and slider too far in they won't be the first thing to catch air and you run the risk of a high-speed opening which could snap your back or neck.

[@jasonwinter8716]

Wouldn't it be impossible for the individual steering lines to twist from the cascade up to the canopy?

[@martywells3523]

Got a question, got new gear I jumped yet and working on learning pro packing. I have rubber bands that appear tighter than in the videos you all posted so should I get looser bands to double stow or single stow the smaller ones? Thanks for your excellent content!!

[@Performance_Designs]

Hey there Marty! We recommend always double stowing each line stow. For the most part, you'll usually see two sizes of rubber bands used for packing. The "Large" is the way to go! You can buy them at most dropzones and online gear stores.

[@kristianhansen4007]

Can you pack the pulse just like A saber 2 or do you need some adjustments?

[@adamblack7162]

I have a new canopy and its like the blob I've tried 20 times to get it into the bag but its too slippery any tips?

[@patricioelosua5886]

Same here! Just cant get it in the damn bag

[@rb1164]

New chutes are not fun !!! My Saber 2 was so difficult, in fact it seemed to doubled my packing time. Then slowly the "slippery" wore off (20-40 pack jobs) and now it is much easier to pack. The big thing for me was controlling the fabric better. Looking forward to jumping in 2021. Happy New Year

[@mirkobarjaktarevic7953]

Thank you!

[@rb1164]

Can you explain why some packers will double stow the grommets and single stow the rest while you doubled stowed every time ?

[@claytonlachance4920]

It’s Just going to change the amount of force to pull the stows out. I imagine that single stows on the last few could help prevent a bag lock as if your pilot chute doesn’t catch air well because it gets trapped on top of you it’s still likely to pull the stows out.

[@Euie6590]

To split your lines or not to split your lines?🤔

[@Josh-qr4gi]

Got my Sabre3 on order... can we get one for the 3? Or is there basically no difference?

[@trashpack6079]

[@HAUSS81]

I’ll save you 26 minutes. Don’t push the nose in.

[@skydiverc1656]

You raise an interesting point with the nose & it seems to be a personal preference thing. If I pro pack I put the nose in. If I psycho pack I leave the nose out. I get good openings with both methods so long may that continue !!!

[@Dionisio181]

@@skydiverc1656 straight nose lead to an on heading opening and an on heading opening can save your life, thats a good reason to follow the manufacturer's rules and theres more about the slider and how you close the tail, you are not saving anybodies time.

[@Dionisio181]

Take your time and look at this video it will change your mind. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gp-QaZehea13Ztk

[@klaarnou]

Once you have packed it properly, take it out again and burn it, cos its a shit canopy.
