Fatman, the wing method shown in your link is called a 'rolled' wing. As you can see from my step-by-step the concave side of all the barbs face back so when the wing in tied down, all the barbs curve in the same direction. With a rolled wing the barbs are rolled between your fingers to form a tube or linear bunch but the natural curve is hapazard. On the plus side, the base of a rolled wing is not bulky like the base of a wing made from 4 or 5 turns of hackle.
