Nope. Suppose it still helps with rolling the kite up. The inflate/deflate valve makes pumping up the kite a breeze. . . almost no resistance from the pump until the kite is virtually fully inflated and deflating is quick as.
Hey Caesar . . . i never roll the kites all the way to one end . . . roll to the centre from each end . . . never had an issue except that you need to wait a while for the air to leak out before rolling it. Do not understand why North ask for their particular rolling method.Caesar wrote: Bummer!
@max - I bet you never rolled up a Cabrinha kite (the later ones with the big one-way-valve). Air is released instantly and the rolled up kite looks much better then when you roll them up all the way from one end to the other (as North recommends it).
Just my 2 cents...
