If using a Saucisse pack go to Step 8.

Step 7. Now place the folded wing into the stuff sack.

Step 4. Group together the middle/trailing 
edge of the wing by sorting the folds near 
the B, C and D tabs.

Step 6. Fold the wing with 3 or 4 folds whilst being 
careful to not crush the LE.

Step 5. Once the LE and rear of the wing have 
been sorted, turn the whole wing on its side.

Step 8. If using the Saucisse Pack, carefully 
zip it up without trapping any material.

Step 9. Turn the Saucisse on its side and make the first 
fold just after the LE reinforcements. Do not fold the plastic 
reinforcements, use 3 or 4 folds around the LE. 

IMPORTANT

: Do NOT lay the wing 

flat on the ground before packing the 

glider, this will cause abrasion damage 

to the top surface as you pull the glider 

towards the middle. ALWAYS pack from 

a mushroom or lift the wing off the 

ground when gathering the wing and 

grouping the leading edge.

IMPORTANT

: Do not fold the glider in the centre, you 

will bend the plastics, instead pack the wing with a full 

concertina method from tip to tip before packing into the 

stuff sac.
