Ok friends,

Who packs with the TF method and runs a top through-loop. Looking for tested, actual experience.

Cheers,

Stoney

I've made about 200 jumps on a through loop (Summit) and a Tilley folded canopy (Ibex). Zero issues.

I have a friend who has been running a through loop and a Tilley fold for many more jumps than that, also with no issues.

Yep. I double fold the reduction folds on the rig with a through loop to make it easier. Same on my wife's rig. Many other people I know do also.

It takes a few pack jobs to get used to the through loop. I've changed the S fold many times to figure out what is easiest for me.

I use a TF and top through loop that I jump regularly slider up with my Profile and Feather.

Yes, always. Feather in Profile. For 8 years.
