Hey, I generally go stowed on all my slider up jumps and I use a handle on my pilot chute (usually a 38'' or 36'' diameter).

For slider down, I usually go hand held - old school habits I guess. When I stow my pilot chute (42'') the same way as for the handled ones, the pilot chute crown is not stiff enough for consistent extraction. I'm not using a mushroom or super-mushroom. Do y'all have suggestions or at least a link to some pictures showing some methods?

you should post this in the begginner forum

Oh snap.

Do smaller folds in the bridle and place the stack under the crown. This is fora mushroom pack ;-)

Here are a few methods, also a quick google search will reveal more.
