Duotone Rebel SLS 2025

Maintaining your kite

Rinsing: Rinse the kite with fresh water after use in salt water, especially the valves, valves and zippers. Let the kite dry completely before packing it away - moisture can lead to mould and wear on the material over time.

Drying: Dry the kite in the shade or in a well-ventilated area, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as UV rays degrade both the canopy and bladder. Hang or lay the kite flat while it dries.

Storage: Store the kite loosely rolled up (not sharply folded) in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Remove sand and dirt before storing, and regularly check the valves, seams and lines for signs of wear so small areas of damage can be repaired in time.
