I fly 10 under my 252.http://www.gombergkites.com/update/457.html � �I've been thinking about adding 6 or 7 more. �I too would like to see more colors, in these. They make for a nice display for a relatively small investment, if you cosider the size of the display.

I have a couple of the "streamer sets" -- a warm one, a cool one and the "American flag" one. �Haven't had them out of the bag in can't remember when...
They look great, gotta pull them out next time I fly... |

| If these tails work the same way that my fabric tails work, the creases work there way out as they wave, plus most are high enough and or moving fast enough to not be seen by those not displaying them (i.e. the flying setting them up). |

Hey Pete
I pretty much do the same thing you do for the same reasons. �
At the field I roll gather them up as neatly as I can and do the stuff sack thing. Then when I get home (mostly then next day) I spread the whole thing out, then instead of rolling right away I'll fold them in half the long way four or five times then I'll roll them up. Folding them first emliminates a lot of rolling, especially with 13 of those bad boys to do. After rolling I always secure the roll with a rubberband. That way when I'm setting them up again they don't get all tangled up before the launch. Makes life much easier on a windy day. After I'm all set up with the anchors, kite, tails, and laundry, I remove the rubberbands.
I do the same with my long flat tails and tubes.
With my Giant Streamer tails for my Flow Forms I found all I have to do is a neat stuff back into the bag and their just fine. Never found the need to fold and roll those things.
Keep'n thing simple!
