Product details for the GP, TS, Kahoona v4/+ and Nemesis HP v3 are included in this manual.
Set-up and pre-flight checks:
Riders should perform a thorough inspection of their kites each time they set-up, and prior to
launching, to ensure that the kites have sustained no damage during use. Any serious damage should
be repaired by a professional kite or sail loft to ensure continued safety and usability.
It is worthwhile inspecting all flying line attachments, bridle sections and pigtails before each flight.
Damage to any of these areas may well render your kite unsafe to fly.
Packing and storing your kite:
When packing your kite away for any period of time please ensure that it is completely dry and free
from contaminants. Wherever possible rinse your kite down with clean water immediately after use
and leave it to dry thoroughly before packing it away. Brightly colored Ripstop materials can be prone
to color leaching if stored when wet, particular when new.
Best Kiteboarding will not replace a kite on the basis that it has suffered color leaching in the fabric due to improper
storage.
Inflation systems:
The GP, TS, Kahoona+ and Nemesis HP kites are all equipped with our EZ-pump
tm
inflation system.
The Kahoona v4 is also available in a standard inflation version as well. All kites are shipped with our
high volume, dual action kite pump for quick and easy inflation of your kite.
Should you ever need to fix or replace a punctured bladder on your EZ-Pump equipped kite you will
require an EZ-Pump
tm
repair kit, the content of which and instructions on use are included in the FAQ
section towards the back of this manual.
