Any tips for rolling up a round solar cover

[prh129]

I just installed a solar reel on the outside of my 24' round AG pool. I used 7 straps spaced 3' apart - since the cover is round, it doesn't roll up as easily if was rectangular so I've been walking back and forth rolling it up a little ways then adjust it then roll a little more etc. to keep it from bunching up in one area. I was just curious if anyone had a better way of rolling up a round cover or is this as good as it gets?

Thanks
