Duotone Evo D/LAB 2024

Maintenance instructions for your kite

• Rinse after use: Rinse the kite with fresh water after sessions in salt water to remove salt and dirt from the canopy, bridle and valves.
• Dry completely before packing: Let the kite dry completely in the shade before rolling it up. Moisture in the canopy can cause mold and break down the material and adhesive.
• Avoid direct sunlight: Do not leave the kite exposed to strong sunlight for extended periods - UV rays break down the canopy and colors over time.
• Proper storage: Store the kite loosely rolled (not sharply folded) in a dry, cool and ventilated place, away from heat sources and chemicals such as gasoline or sunscreen.
• Inspect the equipment regularly: Check the canopy, seams, valves, tube and bridle line for wear or damage before and after use. Small tears in the canopy should be repaired immediately.
• Be careful with air pressure: Always inflate the kite to the recommended pressure, and avoid leaving it inflated and taut in strong sun or wind on the beach.
• Winter storage: If the kite will not be used for an extended period, make sure it is loosely rolled with the valves closed and stored in a dry, frost-free place.
