Learn to pack your main parachute with Skydive Langar's Packing Courses. This unique opportunity is designed to teach participants everything they need to know about packing, fault-finding, and maintaining their own equipment.
The course is split into two parts, ensuring a thorough learning experience. Part 1 focuses on the learning phase, where you will receive extensive education on packing and maintaining your parachute. Our experienced instructors will guide you step by step through the process, providing practical demonstrations along the way. Set in our spacious hangar, each student will have their own kit to learn on, ensuring a hands-on experience. By the end of the full-day course, you'll feel confident in your ability to handle your own pack jobs.
Once you've completed Part 1, it's time for Part 2: the assessment phase. During this stage, your skills will be evaluated, and you'll have the opportunity to demonstrate your proficiency in packing and maintaining your parachute safely. As an added bonus, you'll also learn more about kit maintenance, including reattaching a cutaway canopy and hooking up a new canopy. The assessment will include a 'tangle test' where you'll be challenged to untangle a tangled canopy, as well as a cutaway tangle test where you'll need to untangle and reattach a detached canopy. Rest assured, our experienced instructors will be by your side throughout the course, providing guidance and assistance whenever needed.
Upon successfully completing both parts of the course, you will be awarded an 'Approved Packing Certificate'. This certificate holds great significance as it marks an essential step towards becoming an independent skydiver and taking care of your own gear. It shows that you have not only acquired the necessary skills but have also demonstrated your commitment to safety within the sport.
