9. Detach the front wires at the nose plate.
10. Pull the sail out away from the keel until it is even on top and bottom. Roll the sail gently and carefully, parallel to
the trailing edge of the front and then outboard portion of the sail.
Try to roll the sail in such way that the leading edge portion remains as smooth as possible. Do not attempt to stuff
the sail between the Mylar pocket and the leading edge tube at any point where you feel resistance, and do not
attach the Velcro ties so tight so as to induce creases in the Mylar or leading edge sail material (Fig.33).
11. Working from the trailing edge, roll the sail tightly to the leading edge, and install the tip cover bags.
12. Secure the sail with the Velcro sail ties. The first Velcro tie is installed by passing it over the top of the keel tube
just near the Crossbar-LE tube junctions, and then installing it around the glider leading edges (Fig.34).

13. Place the bag with battens on the nose section along the keel, put the nose cone under the front velcro ties.
Secure the sail with remaining sail ties.
14. Install the glider bag. Flip the glider over onto the ground. Detach the basebar and place it between the leading
edges in the bag provided.

15. Fold up the control bar and install the control bar bag, lay it down against the keel. Undo the velcro, which was
done first, reach it out to free the keel tube and install it again around both leading edges with the control bar inside.
Bring all wires forward along tubes and place downtubes inside the folded sail (Fig.35).
Place the tail between leading edges with its wide end towards the keel tube end and place winglets next to the
basebar (Fig.36).
16. Zip up the glider bag.
The glider is ready for transportation.
