What is the best way to fold up my RPM after a sesh ? At the moment I'm rolling it up like the old C kite way ? Any thoughts ? Is there a right or wrong way to go ???

Rolling or Folding is a bit like the old 'fold or scrunch' debate with your toilet paper...

You'll get people who swear by folding, you get people who swear by rolling, but in the end it all comes down to what you prefer...

I roll, because you get more air out quicker, and a smaller package at the end of it all...
The RPM is quite a C shape anyway, so just roll it

I usually fold the wing tip and then roll. Some say that folding in the same place each time causes creases in the kite material which can weaken it.
