Taking your gear out of storage and getting set up for summer!
Gear up for the Season
Tip Tuesday with PD Athlete Anna Moxnes 😎
If your skydiving gear has been stored this winter season then it’s time to check it out so that you can be ready for the start of the season. It’s also a great time to remind ourselves of how to properly store our gear when we know we won’t be jumping for awhile.
Some things to keep in mind
- 😃 If your gear has been sitting for awhile… repack your main!
- 🔍 Check out the quality of your rubber bands.
- 🤢 Moisture creates mould! Make sure you store your rig somewhere safe and dry.
- ☀️ At the end of the summer, think about leaving your canopy unpacked.
- 🗓️ Make sure your reserve is in date before you head to the DZ!
Thanks PerformanceDesigns 👍 😎
