Default New Ventus 2 and Discus Winglets - M&H

I'm curious - since the image on the link appears to have an outward cant,
does this increase the measured span beyond 15 meters, or is more cut off
the tip during initial installation to account for this?

Or, put differently, while sporting these winglets, can the glider still be
fit between two posts spaced 15 meters apart? Or does anyone care about
that any more?

M&H announces NEW WINGLETS for the Ventus2 and Discus. The winglets
are designed by Prof. Mark Maughmer of Penn State University and the
Ventus2 winglets are expected to be available late spring 2012. Discus
winglets expected availability will be announced here later.
