Easiest chute to pack
« on: November 02, 2014, 07:32:45 AM »
I have a Simpson chute on my car and it works very well but it is a pain to pack . It just seems like the pack is too small for the chute . I have been thinking about a Stroud chute just because they are such nice people to deal with . Any thoughts ! Bill

I have nothing else to compare it to but have a Stroud and it is very easy to pack and has always opened .

Only time my Simpson is difficult is when the pilot is beat up and needs replacment, otherwise its just a simple one man job, extra set set of hands just get in the way.

for my new car, I've made the chute pack mount removable.  I find it easier to pack the chute on the ground then mount it on the car and fit the release cable.
