Ok. JLCR and "standard" flat-sheet rip-stop parachute and braided nylon lines is no problem. Lots of ways to pack, no issues passing "shake test"...and "puff test"....
But I now have a few Rocketman parachutes. 3', 4', & 5'. These only have 4 shroud lines made of 3/16 tubular nylon. trying to figure out how to pack, them. It's not working. No matter how tight I get it, or which layer I pack the shroud lines into. It partially failes shake test. The shrouds work themselves out over 30 seconds of vigorous shaking.
So I am looking at 2 things.
1) Any recommendations on how to get them to stay in the bundle?
2) What about leaving them out of the bundle, and letting them extend to full length right away. Just have JLCR hold the chute closed. Thoughts ?
