  • After every session you have to roll your kite, so why not make it easier for ourselves.
    This technique works very well with most kites, some brands like Duotone have a valve in the tip so you can already roll from one side to the other.

    What I always do. So simple I don’t know why most don’t do the same

    • @stevenakkersdijk

      So natural for some, whilst others never thought about it.

    one more trick. dropping a rolled bar (you always have it at that stage) on the top of the kite around a valve helps a Lot. especially with a bigger sized kite

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  6 месяцев назад

      Yes, I can see how that will help you out 🤙

    I always do it this way. I saw a video years ago that called it the taco method.

    I think you're rolling downwind, right? In the video you say, "move upwind"

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  3 месяца назад

      I'm upwind of the kite and rolling downwind indeed, but when you deflate the kite it's under an angle (not pointing exactly downwind) That's why I say that the person should move upwind. (hope that makes sense)

  • @DrOppeppertje

    When the kite is wet i always do this, because I know I roll up my kite again afterwards to let it dry; It is not the correct way to roll it up like this, because the tubes to your struts and inflates of them as well will easily bend/break when rolling your kite up like this. Own experience, give it a try, but definitely not worth it

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  Год назад

      Sorry to hear you had a bad experience when doing this. I've been doing it like this for a long as I can remember and never had any trouble with the one pump system because of it. But I also have to say that my kites are usually quite new 🙈

    Try it on 17m kite this

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  Год назад +2

      I did, doesn't work so nice. I use this technique for every kite under 13m, bigger than that I usually do it the classic way.

    Works well but not so good on duotone

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  Год назад

      Duotone has a different valve system where they put the deflate valve at the end of the tip. So you can just roll from one side to the other which is even easier

    Try again with a 15sqm ;)

    • @stevenakkersdijk
      @stevenakkersdijk  Год назад

      Usually you use the 15sqm in such light winds that it's not a problem to roll it towards the middle from both sides 😉

      I don't think this is linked to the Germans specifically 😅

    I do the same way, I found this technique on my own, people look at me like WTF! But in high wind it's just better 😊

      Nicely done! It does throw some weird eyes every once in a while
