Description
- PROTECT YOUR KITE FROM THE SUN, THE WIND, AND THE BEACH
- The SUN.The U.V. (ultra violet light) breaks down the fabric making it soft and weak.
- The WIND. When riding, the trailing edge stays nice and taut but on the beach it flaps constantly in the wind. This "flagging" breaks down the fibers causing lost strength and shape.
- The BEACH. On the beach the leading edge constantly rubs on the sand and rocks causing abrasions and tears. And putting sand on the canopy to hold the kite down worsens the damage.
- Protect your kite with our kitecover. Our kitecover is made from U.V. resistant ripstop nylon to block the U.V. It slips under the leading edge to protect it from abrasion, and over the trailing edge to stop flagging. No U.V., no flagging, no abrasion! And it's quick and easy to use.
KITESHIELD : PROTECT YOUR KITE FROM THE SUN, THE WIND, AND THE BEACH Our kites cost us thousands of dollars. Doesn't it make sense protect them and prolong their lives? Think about what we typically do at the end of a session. We land the kite on the beach, put some sand on the canopy to hold it down and then leave it sitting in the wind and sun. THERE ARE THREE THINGS THAT REALLY DAMAGE YOUR KITE The SUN.The U.V. (ultra violet light) breaks down the fabric making it soft and weak. The WIND. When riding, the trailing edge stays nice and taut but on the beach it flaps constantly in the wind. This "flagging" breaks down the fibers causing lost strength and shape. The BEACH. On the beach the leading edge constantly rubs on the sand and rocks causing abrasions and tears. And putting sand on the canopy to hold the kite down worsens the damage.
