    All - My sincere apologies. There is one part of this video that I have backwards -- Battens! In - Out? Turns out - for light winds you will go battens out to provide slightly more shape. In typical conditions battens in. Thank you Stefano for bringing this to my attention. Ultimately, the difference on battens in/out is pretty slight.

    Great review. Thank you. But I think the installation of battens in/out is inaccurate. Particularly with the 6.1m, If you need more power because wind is on the light side you take battens out. If you ride in powered conditions then you put the battens on. At least that was what Armie said in couple of videos about the XPS.

      Oh My! I better test that out. Thank you for comment -- I'll double check that. Thank you for checking out the video.

      @stefanog9818 -- Sorry! You are correct. Battens out for light wind and slightly more power. Battens in for most conditions. My mistake - thank you!

      Sooooo how does it stack up to the Loft and Ventis weight and performance durability? Also suggest a bit less air for more power in light wind? But thanks for the unboxing. I want one!

    I'd sure like to know how to get these back in the bag!

      Hey Brian -- we can help you with that. Roll from the tips of the wing - always being careful not to 'crimp' the leading edge. Once you roll from either side - I typically fold in three. If you'd like we can do a instagram video Insta: @halflifet.5
      If you decide to follow us - drop me a note and I'll do a quick video.
      Happy Winging!
