How do you pack your Fox?
Hello. I am very lazy and I try to find the easiest way to pack my Fox.
When I am packing Troll there is nothing difficult.
How I pack my Fox:
- I put my canopy on the floor
- Going to the one side
- put 3 cells
- take white tabs ( a-b fold)
- grey tabs (b-c)

When I trying to grab black tabs on my Fox it's look not like on Troll and too far from Apex base packing video. What do you do with "c-d" fold? I am just take "d" lines, put it on the center and continue pack as usual.

Do you have a troll MDV or DW?

The Troll MDV does not have the packing tabs in line with the lines and this can make the shape and packing style feel different.

The DW packs similar to other canopies.

This is fine.

The fabric behind the tailgate has almost no effect on opening heading, because heading is established at the nose, before the tailgate opens.

As long as you have controlled the D lines and put them in the center, the C-D fold is just a convenience to make it easier to get the canopy into the container. Behind the tailgate, it is the lines that cause issues--not the fabric.

accurately packing your canopy slider up, but than being too lazy to repack it a year later and taking it on a slider down jump because you were too lazy to even check what kind of packjob you have; well, that will completely negate the whole accurate thing ...

leave lazy at the DZ when the first load is at 8AM and you just don't feel like getting up

Re: [vid666] How do you pack your Fox?
I am lazy but not crazy. I just don't like to do excess work.
I don't use fire - I use electricity.
I prefer to use car for a long trip.
I use telephone and don't use homing-pigeon.
And thank to google translate for translating this message. Tongue

Re: [TomAiello] How do you pack your Fox?
I have a question about symmetry in my packing (slider-down):
When I use "TB-pack" sometimes canopy looks too wide than tailpocket. Is it critical if I fold one side to another? (see the pic) Cool

You can do it either way. Fold it in halves so the two sides meet in the middle, or overlap them on top of each other. I have used both methods and cannot see any difference in the openings.
