This is my off the top of my head summary, am I missing anything?

DIRECT-Head straight to the beacon and then turn onto the outbound track and join the hold.
Corrections-Full head/tailwind correction on the outbound leg only

PARALLEL-Head straight to the beacon and then follow the outbound track for 1 minute then left turn and track directly to the beacon and join the hold.
Corrections-Full headwind only.

OFFSET-Head to the beacon then outbound track minus 30 degrees for 1 minute then a right turn tracking back overhead the fix and join the hold.
Corrections-1/2 cross wind correction and full head or tailwind.

Many thanks fellow pilots!

Parallel is parallel, not a backtrack....... :)

Yes, so you track on outbound heading and then left turn back to beacon.

Just making sure....
