I wish it was a few inches longer, but the Burrito Bag seemed like a really good idea. If I didn't have a lot of "full size" kites I would have kept mine.

What happened to it? I notice it isn't in the catalog anymore. Are there any hanging around? I would cut it in the middle and add maybe 4 inches to the overall length and be completely happy with it.

Marty, what size of kites do you have? Only the Firestorm totally assembled didnt fit in that thing!

The bag was discontinued due to lack of interest.
I have a new design of a bag, not a roll up, and we should see pics of it in the next couple of months.

Wecome to the forum Marty!

I love my Burrito Bag. It would be hard to travel without it.

Dodd, you made the bag about 4 inches too short. I couldn't put my old Team Kites, or the Calfornia Katana in it. Both use two 32.5 inch sticks on the leading edge. Most of my other kites fit just fine, but I didn't want to have two kite bags so everything went into an old MLD bag.

I've got a bag on the workbench, but I really would rather make kites than make another bag, so guess I'll look around for a burrito bag to do surgery on.

This board looks like it could be a good one. Good luck with things.

I was outbid LARGE at Tybee a couple years ago for one and for some reason, never got around to putting one on order. I snoozed and lost.
