These sessions are presented by Al and Gretchen Beatty
T’s Fly Tying Friday – 10 October 2025 – 6 PM MDT, The Beattys Another New/Old Parachute – A Split Wing Parachute
We’ll continue the late Nigel Roger’s “New/Old Parachute” adventure into “compressed hackle parachutes” by attempting to “construct” a pattern with divided wings. One will be a Wonder Wing Parachute and the other fly is yet to be determined. We may be trying a technique suggested by our friend Sam Matalone, which involves using multiple strands of monofilament. The WEEKLY TIP will be a review of last week, with any additions we discover during our research during the week. If we have time, we’ll gather tips from viewers via the SHARING section; we’ll have to determine that based on the time and Al’s energy level. If we don’t have time, please save your tips for future episodes of FTF because we all really want to see what you have to offer.
If you have friends interested in joining us, please email Al (albeatty2@gmail.com) so he can add them to the notification list to receive the new weekly Zoom link.
The Beattys invite you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
