YouTube video

 

 

Grasp sail at the 10:00 and the 2:00 positions with the paddle pocket down at the 6:00 position. Grasp sail with thumbs pointing down.

 

 

 

Pull hands together while rotating the top of the sail down. The sail should now take on the classic "Pringles" potatoe-chip shape as you bring your thumbs together. Do not let sail hoop twist or turn. Bring sail into an elongated shape as pictured.

 

 

 

 

Continue to bring thumbs together letting the top of sail start to tuck down and under. Again, do not let the Wind Paddle sail twist. Sail should start to take on a figure-8 shape. (note: the top part of the sail will continue down, around, under and then come back up inside the bottom part).

 

 

When thumbs touch, grab sail with one hand and tuck the top of the sail down and under the lower hoop that has formed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tuck upper hoop down and then fold the middle section down over the top section and against the lower section.

 

 

 

 

Hold all three sections together. You have successfully coiled the Wind Paddle for storage into the paddle sock. Now wrap the compression strap around the coiled Wind Paddle sail to form and elongated circle and slide the paddle sock over the sail for storage.
