So you flaked the parachute, folded it up and got the lines stowed in the bag.... Now what?!? Greg Rau, UPT's long time Tour Rep and Demo Coordinator, shows us the best way to close up that beautiful Vector container up and get back in the air on this episode of #GetGearedUPT

Some people would always tell me that my closing loop was too loose, as Greg shows here. Riggers would argue that any bumps or during flight could easily knock the pin out of the loop, therefore needing it to be as tight as possible. Could you advise?

Why has you closed the top bands ( shoulders bands) at the last moment?

Greg, through MANY MANY pack jobs, has found that he personally likes to use the magnetic riser covers to hold in place until he has finished his pack job. He finds this to be an easy way to insure correct magnetic polarity when packing lots of different Vector containers. He finalizes the pack job on his Vector by neatly securing the external riser covers as shown. This is his personal preference of order for speed and efficiency. Thanks for the question!

What is the model being packed in the video?

@UPTVector 9 месяцев назад

This is Greg's favorite! It is a 2017 Vector v320 Micron with our Kryptec Typhon Cordura.

Why not stack the rizers?

Great question! We suggest a slight offset of the risers when routing against the side of the reserve tray, under the internal riser covers, to allow for a low bulk and flush display during packing. This will in turn, limit interaction between the front and rear riser during opening sequence. WIN/WIN!
