"Folding" the parachute to skydive, more commonly referred to as packing, is a skill that all student skydivers need to learn before gaining their first license. To learn to pack a skydiving parachute, seek a licensed skydiver or an experience packer for demonstration and a helper during the learning process. There are videos available to aid the learning process, such as Packing Made Simple. If learning through a video, always seek a licensed instructor, certified rigger, or instructor to ensure the parachute has been packed correctly before use.

Do sky divers go up when a parachute opens?
Sky divers do not go up, but they do undergo deceleration due to the increased drag incurred by the parachute being suddenly opened. Since skydivers, when being filmed by a cameraman, release their parachute first, there is a relative acceleration between the cameraman and the skydiver, creating the illusion that the skydiver is travelling up.
