Kiteboard Gear

Quickly Restore Your Kite

Kitesurfing is a fast-paced, dynamic water activity. While kiteboard gear is crafted from high-quality, robust materials, eventually, you will need to replace or upgrade worn-out items. It's prudent to have some extra kiteboard equipment ready before they wear out completely and always carry spare parts to the shore for any urgent fixes.

Usual kitesurfing accessories you will discover in this category include items such as bladders and reinforcement fibres. It's also advisable to have an extra valve. Over time, all valves will begin to leak and deteriorate, so ensure you keep a spare handy.

Some brands also provide a comprehensive repair kit that includes everything you need in a single, convenient package.

Understanding Kite Pump Mechanics

Although not the most entertaining task, every kitesurfer must inflate their kite before heading into the water. Manual pumps remain the most prevalent, but numerous models allow you to alternate between single and double-stroke inflation, enabling an immediate switch from high-volume, low-pressure inflation to low-volume, high-pressure inflation.

Additionally, when selecting your pump, it's worth considering one with a gauge on top to monitor the psi during inflation. Moreover, many kite kits feature multiple nozzles, ensuring compatibility with the valve.

If you’re searching for something to organise all of your equipment, then a practical option is to acquire a Surf Bag.
