It’s recommend you repack your paragliding reserve atleast once a year. Let’s use this as an oppourtunity to discuss how to store, deploy and repack your reserve. When’s the last time you aired yours out? No reason not to attend. ☺
Toss your reserve while suspended in your harness. By the end of the day you will have your round or square reserve tossed and repacked by yourself as instructed by Parafreddo.
This is a hands on clinic. You will be taking part in the repack.
Parafreddo will demonstrate how to trim check a wing, and how to make field repairs for your wings and lines.
Rogallos? (Steerable beamer, etc) Due to the fact that the repack of a rogallo is moderately more challenging, if you bring yours, you can toss at the clinic, and Parafreddo can take the rogallo back to his loft in Quebec. His normal repack fee will apply in addition to the event, but you will save on shipping your reserve to him.
Another option for you, have Parafreddo take your wing back to his loft for full trim checks, save on shipping it to him again. Again his regular trim check fee will apply, but you can save on shipping your wing to him.
We will have the harness hangar/simulator as well, so if you want to fit your harness before the season starts up you can do that aswell.
Here’s what you need to bring:
-your reserve and harness ready to toss, (if you don’t have a harness to toss from you can still do the repack)
-your harness manual
-your reserve manual
Remember:
-Square and Round reserves will be repacked
-Rogallos need to be sent to Parafreddo for his repack service (additional fee)
