If you want to make your kite as small as possible for your next kiteboarding trip, follow this process. Remove the wingtip battens from their pockets. Take extra time to squeeze all remaining air out of each bladder individually. Lay the kite out flat and fold the trailing edge up on top of the rest of the canopy so that fold is approximately in line with the end of the last strut. Starting at one wingtip, begin making small folds, approximately 10-12 inches, to the center strut. Repeat this process starting at the other wingtip. Now fold these sections together and begin folding from the trailing edge to the leading edge. Your folded kite should now be the size of a large folded beach towel. You can easily put two kites in a normal kite backpack using this method.

fold the kite in half (wingtip to wingtip) first and take care of the whole thing at once. thats what i do, otherwise you look like a kook walking all around your kite rolling up one side, then the other, then back to the first side because it started unrolling, etc etc.
