There are different ways who can help to extend the life of your mini wing. One way is 

to fold the mini wing right. It’s most important to watch out for the reinforcements to 

maintain the take off characteristics and the performance. We are recommending the 

“Origami  Method” and the use of a Origami-Pack Sack (see below). Together with your 

mini wing you get a traditional pack sack who also protects your mini wing. How to use 

it we describe after the “Origami Method”.

PACKING YOUR MINI WING

Traditional-Method

Step 1: Bundle up your mini wing in form 

of  a  cabbage.  This  way  you’re  avoiding 

that the mini wing drags over the ground 

during folding.

Step 2: Begin with the center of the trailing 

edge. Put one profile over the other. Each 

side separate.

Step 3: Now do it in the same way 

with  the  leading  edge  profiles.  Put  the 

reinforcements of top and bottom in the 

right  way,  don’t  close  the  cell  openings 

and push out the fabric.

Step 4: Fold the wing like an accordion from both sides and put one side over the other. 

Now all reinforcements are laying side-wise one above the other.

Step 5: Fold the sack as shown in the 

photo. This method is very gentle to the 

more stiffer parts of the mini wing.

Step 6: At last put the mini wing into the protection bag.
