Great first bit of advice, then the moment you put it in the compression bag and nothing happens...
priceless...
What do you mean nothing happened!!!! When we put the straps around and tight the bag, the kite was more compact then before. So we were able to make it 20% more compact them before.
I know right. Was hardly much smaller
@@strawberryxcow9215 If you want the kite to be packed smaller then you can tight the straps even more then what you see on the video. But for the video I decided to keep the bag not too tight so it looks presentable. 👍
@@epickites You did a great job thank you!
Hi dimitri would love to get demo of an epic kite got to see one on my local comp was super impressed my the hang time where could i get a demo cheers
Nice one! I'm really curious about bladder valves and why they glue and don't weld them on. Be neat to see a bladder construction video too.
We are working on welding the bladders on the 6G kites.
woow this good tip for my travel
Keep in mind
The pressure in the bag is damaging the kite. Of course if you need it that small and so compressed it is ok - just to be aware of the other side of the coin. This is a good tip, to use in emergency situation. Like you have only room for 2 kites but want to put 3 or 4..
Where is this place btw ?
3:20 Why is there a Liquid Force Solo in i the background? Same factory?
Because one of our kite factories makes also 13 other kite brands and Liquid Force is one of them
That explains it!
Chinese Factory
Shared with our group. My Slingshot Turbine 17 is filled with wet sand and rolled up. LOL
Nice tip ;)
Learned something thnx
Dimitri the Kite God
buena mano de obra!!!!!
OMG! Why they deflate kite in that way? Is ther no machine to do this without human hands???
Tip to tip and roll. I achieve what u did in 25knots in 10 secs. The correct way to get it smaller is not the way shown. Hard to explain but its done like a map in the right spots so the curvature of the trailing edge and of the leading edge are removed first. The folds are alternated between the struts and leading edge as the kite is folded up.
The way shown is inefficient due to inconsistent thickness in the roll at the trailing and leading edge, when folded you end up with a springy mess rather than a flat origami kite package that is about 15% smaller.
The way i have described is how ive seen top brands do it for years to minimise shipping size.
Hahahahaha...very funny. One thing you need to know David is that the smaller you make your kite the worst it is for the kite, especially if you plan to keep your kite in the bag for a long time. Just so you know, you don't want to pack your kite too small because the bladders will get damage. Plus the way I showed you how to fold the kite was in the factory were they make the top 13 kite brands.
Easy to get the air out by using suction from the pump.
You can do that also if you want. Even better if you want you can take a vacuum cleaner and suck out all the air out. It is all up to you how you want to remove the air from the kite.
Squeegeeing out the air using two hands is the fastest way to empty a strut. Rolling like is shown can’t be good for the tenacity of the fabric.
Manually walk my palms over struts inch by inch... like the fine lady she is.
i was hoping this was the video that i needed but this is far from the way my kite was packed.
Yeah, Yeah.... after my 5-6 hours+ of ride, i feel to do this....
Only 5 to 6 hours!!!!! My Grandmother does that. You need to kite more then that my friend. Also if you are not going to kite for a long time I recommend to pack your kite the way you see in the video so you don't damage the bladder. Because rolling it is fast but in the long run it will damage the bladder.
You're too good my champion.... If you look my sentence, i wrote + and i take a break 1 time not 10 times like you during the day. Also, I not only ride. I change my set of 3 kites every 2 years since 12 years+..... Come with me to play hockey, you will cry to your grand mother after some of my hit and be sure your head is up... Not the europeen hockey... The real hockey.
Can I play Hockey with my SPEEDO? www.epickiteskiteboarding.com/videos/action/dismyspeedo/
@@dimitrimaramenides4720 no you have to wear the ZUMBA pants.
:-) NO. I don't fold. I pump kites.
Instructions: you need 3 ungry Chinese factory workers, 2 large pieces of wood and the boss drilling your brain to fold a kite.
LOL.
Thanks goodness today's kites are lighter and compact and you don't need to compress and roll your kite to fillout the air inside gravity help a lot.
You can always use your dog and have him roll your kite while you are eating Chinese food Malaka. 😉👍
Just as a note... that intro is just annoying. Leave it out and get to the point.
Sorry but I can’t make everyone happy. 😉👍
