If someone is helping you to land a foil race kite just get them to wrap their arms around the kite UP from the tip and lay it downwind on the sand. 

The reason for this is the span wise strengtheners sewn into the top skin doesn't go all the way to the tip cells to save weight, so the delicate end cells could easily be ripped off.
