Packing up a Wills Wing T2C

I just roll the sail into the Mylar pocket and try to get it to
fold as close to the back of the Mylar pocket seam as possible. I re-roll the
tip by folding it perpendicular to the leading edge and rolling it just tight
enough to fit in the tip bags.

Steve has it right. I try to get the upper surface to fold on the
seam between the leading edge material and upper surface material. All other
pointers are exactly what I practice.

I do the same as Steve suggested. When the glider is new in
particular, after the tip bags are on and I fold the wings in, I always remove
each tip bag and roll the sail as clean and uniform as possible. Before I roll
the sail up, I pull out on the sail at it widest part (on the outside of the
trailing edge where it folds over) and use my other hand to push all of the
excess sail under and in back toward the LE. Then I roll it up in a uniform way
to the tip and make sure to fold the sail right where the LE meets the top
surface.

I use Steve's technique and pack it just like the factory does
with the bottom surface ribs in the sail and I do not worry about making it too
pretty, I want the creases to be different every time, if that helps. I also
like to keep my glider longer so I do not have to tune a new one too often.
Creases have not been a problem for me.
