OK guys:
At least with the U-Reely my lines weren't laying on the ground just begging for a kink. Didn't need to keep the reel in my pocket for put-up either. Just punch the lock, thumb the brake lever down and reel in right after flight. Never damaged a pair of lines with it. Used same ones up till 1970, when I gave all my stuff to my best freind. Definitely my handle of choice.
