Duotone Evo SLS Concept Blue 2025

With a little care, your Evo SLS Concept Blue will last for many years of sessions. Follow these simple tips for washing, drying, and storing it to keep both the fabrics and bladder in top shape.

• Washing: Rinse the kite with fresh water after every session, especially after using it in salt water, and leave it hanging loosely to dry on land.
• Drying: Dry the kite completely before packing it away, in the shade or indoors, as direct sunlight breaks down the material over time.
• Sand and debris: Shake and brush the sand off the kite before rolling it up, as sand wears down the seams, valves, and zippers.
• Storage: Store the kite loosely rolled in a protective case in a cool, dry place, and avoid leaving it in a hot car or damp room.
• General care: Keep the kite away from sharp objects, shells, and asphalt, don’t let it flap unnecessarily on the beach, and repair small holes or leaking bladders right away before the damage gets worse.

What size Evo SLS Concept Blue should I choose?

The kite comes in seven sizes from 7.0 to 13.0 m². As a rule of thumb, choose the smaller sizes for strong winds and the larger sizes for lighter winds.

Is the Evo SLS Concept Blue good for beginners?

The kite is built as a high-performance freeride kite for sporty riders who want precise control and plenty of lift. Complete beginners will often benefit more from an easy-to-use all-around kite before moving up to the SLS class.

Which kite bar works with the Evo SLS Concept Blue?

The kite is flown with a standard 4-line kite bar with a chicken loop and safety system, like the ones you know from other modern kites. Use the bar size you normally use for kites in this class to keep the handling feeling natural.

What does SLS mean in Evo SLS?

SLS stands for Strong Light Superior and refers to a construction that makes the kite lighter, stronger, and more responsive than the standard version. This gives it greater agility and precise, easy handling.

What makes the Concept Blue version more sustainable?

Undyed fabrics save water and energy during production, the bladder is bio-based, and several components are made from recycled plastic. All without compromising the kite's strength and performance.

What is the Evo SLS Concept Blue best suited for?

It's a versatile freeride kite optimized for jumps, loops, and cruising in changing wind conditions. Its strong boost and long hangtime also make it a fun companion when you're practicing tricks.

How do I best care for my kite?

Rinse the kite with fresh water after using it in salt water, let it dry completely in the shade, and remove the sand before packing it away. Then store it somewhere cool and dry so both the fabrics and bladder last for many seasons.
