LONGFOLDING THE CANOPY
After flatfolding, the canopy is ready for longfolding. Proceed as follows:
1. The anti-inversion net and the lower lateral band of the canopy will be folded 180 degrees, with the
right group folded first, so that the lower edges are parallel to each other and are slight extended
(approximately 2-inches) over the two groups of suspension lines.
2. Grasp the edges on the right side of the anti-inversion net with the left hand, and the lower lateral
band in the right hand. Fold edges slightly over suspension lines/radial seam (approximately 2-
inches).
3. Place the first packing weight on the lower lateral band.
4. Continue folding the right group in the same manner until you reach halfway up the canopy.
