Does anyone know were i can find a flat packing video for download? Found a link here from TomAiello but i didnt work.

Thanx, Svein

Dropbox suspended my account because of too many downloads.

I've PM'd you with the new link, on Google Drive.

I am going to try not to just post it up in a thread, because when I did that on Dropbox it got around 100 downloads in an hour (and then they suspended my account).

Please download it and save it on your computer, rather than watching it as a stream from Google Drive.

Got it! Thanx alot:-)

Svein

BREAKING NEWS:
CNN MONEY MARKET:Twin Falls, ID
The stock in heavy clamps (as shown below) has skyrocketed through the roof, sending people by the dozens to their local hardware store to stock up on the springy gadgets before the expected 200% price increase takes effect. Manufactures are literally depleting the Earths resources in an attempt to keep manufacturing just below the new found demand. Retail locations, such as The Home Depot, have already started to show signs of increase both on Wall Street and at their physical locations across the western United States.

While no source of speculation has been yet confirmed, it is believed that this sudden increase in popularity has to do with a specific "extreme sport" entering mainstream pop culture, and and a viral video out of the quaint town of Twin Falls, Idaho. Stay with us, the world's largest business media feed, as the story unveils.

Should I invest?

theres another option for a few bucks from jesse

Best.

It's actually been fairly well proven that the orange Home Depot clamps cause off headings. It's important that packing clamps be purchased from Lowes, preferably in blue, and definitely not in the Home Depot orange color.

like these?

Haha. I agree, I use the green when i use them and they have served me well.
And with all due respect, which is more than a metric shit-ton, having never took a class, your video had helped me understand a BASE pack job a lot even though I saw it after I started jumping. It helped me dial in my reserve packs too. You're a wealth of knowledge and your passion for making the activity as safe as can be is shown almost daily. Out of everybody I have jumped with over the fairly short time I've been jumping fixed objects, those who have taken your class have been, by far, the most prepared and well rounded jumpers I have met (and with very few exceptions). I'm proud to call you a friend and grateful for the advice you've shared over the years. Regardless of the shit you get for the clamptastrophe bungee-ridden pack job in this video, anybody learning can definitely get a much better idea of which elements of a pack job are most important from studying it. Keep up the noble work!

Cheers brother, thanks for having thick skin and a good since of humor.

I can't use the orange, they clash with my hair.
Jack Smith sent me a set of GREEN but the tips
were thin and fell off every time the wind blew.
The blue one's work, but are really just so 2008.

The new shit is Harbor Freight bitches, they have
a 2" Heavy Duty Spring Clamp for $2.99 that has
the thickest poly tips and grips of any clamp sold
and is said to come with some kind of "Lifetime"
warranty according to Chuma, I don't know, I've
never returned something to that sketchy place.

In 2006 I learned to pack using Tom A's DVD.
Always wondered about the guy hobbling around
on crutches in the background with injured legs...

Exit Point Productions' packing video is the best
instructional DVD I have seen for SKY or BASE.

I got confused watching the packing video at the part where you recommend tying a pullup cord around your lines..

is that before or after i use a rubberband to pack my pilotchute?

i prefer duct tape or super glue.

i like a combination of super glue, frion, and poutporri, because you can get your lines all squared away while at the same time huffing all that shit and getting right fuckin ripped!
