Custom Rocket Company Parachute Folding Method

This (see pic) is the parachute folding method shown at Step 17 of the instructions for the Custom Rocket Company “Sport” kit. Hmm. Never done it this way. I will let you know how it goes.

That’s interesting. Whenever I’m in front of a group of beginners I always tell them that if you ask five rocketeers how to fold a ‘chute you’ll get at least six answers….so this fits right in.

If I folded a plastic chute that way, I would not have faith that it would open. Now silk or nylon, I'm not sure that it matters.
