In general, the de-rig is just the reverse of the rig, but here are some extra pointers:
'''Always wash the glider if it is at all dirty, especially the leading edges and underside of the fuselage.''' If the dirt/bugs are left, it takes much longer to clean than if they are cleaned off at the end of the day. Bucket and sponge are provided, and use the leather to dry.
# Prep the glider as much as you can before pulling it onto the dolly in front of the trailer, which can be potentially in the way of other people derigging. You can take the tape off, tailplane, batteries, parachute etc all before you get to the trailer.
