I just received an almost new (30 jumps) GS Vision. Can someone post the closing instructions for the container? I have not made any BASE jumps, but I am compiling gear (dont have a canopy yet) and want to know as much as possible about how to assemble it and how it functions.
Also, on the shrivel flap, the bottom part, I assume is where the bridle is attatched to the pilot chute, but I cannot figure out what the top part attaches to.

>Can someone post the closing instructions for the container?
Honestly, I think you REALLY need a physical mentor that comes at your place and shows physically how to rig it and how to close it and whatever else.
I wouldn't leap off an object with a rig which I received instruction via Internet.
Please, get help from an experienced jumper that shows you IN PERSON how to do things.
Just my 0.02€.

Dont worry, I am not going to flik myself of any object without proper instruction, and I am planning on taking a FJC in April. I was just curious on how my gear functions.

I posted this on dz.com and i got an PM from a jumper, who knows someone who is moving to my area and will try to get me in contact with them so as I can have someone to learn from.

velcro flap attaches to one side, then the other then the top then the bottom, or you can go in any order really, just make sure yer shrivel is set up so that the GS sports is right side up and it shrivels such that if you are head downit will peel not try to pull the velcro. make sure the bridle attachment point is attached to the canopy and that it is high enough that it wil not disturb yer pack job as it opens... use yer head and think about what will happen when you toss yer PC out there and it will all work out fine
