To pack your v3  kite first completely deflate the struts. Then release the deflate valve on the LE of the kite. Roll up each 
strut from the bottom to the top to expel all the air. Repeat this until all the struts are deflated. Roll the LE from tip to center 
to expel all the air from one half of the kite, then repeat with the other side of the kite being careful not to squeeze air from 
one half of the leading edge into the other during deflation.  
  
Kites equipped with our external EZ-pump system require that you open the clicker valve, located on the short hose that 
links each strut to the LE bladder before deflating each strut. 
 
With your fully deflated kite now lying on the ground with the struts visible, fold the kite so that the tips touch where the 
center strut is/would be. Fold the kite in towards the middle again then fold the LE back on itself and continue folding the 
kite in towards the middle until it is the width of your kite bag. Finally fold the kite leading edge to trailing edge in either 2 
or 3 sections until it is small enough to fit inside your bag. 
 

REPLACING/REPAIRING EZ-PUMP STRUT BLADDERS: 

 
All v3 kites come with an accessory repair kit provided by KiteFix. In addition to the standard Ripstop and bladder material 
pack, the HP kit comes with replacement zip ties for the strut hoses and a valve plug for sealing strut valves to pressure 
check them during repair.  To remove the strut valve, follow the diagram below to remove the zip-tie, and then unseat the 
strut bladder valve prior to withdrawing the strut bladder from the strut casing. 
 

 

Don’t forget to tie some line to the valve before you pull it all the way out of the strut casing! 

 

HOW HARD SHOULD I INFLATE MY KITE? 

 
We recommend that you use the new high-volume, dual-action 'Green' pump available from Best or your local dealer. We 
selected these pumps because it is very difficult to over inflate the kite with a manual pump. Your Kahoona v3  should be 
inflated to around 10 PSI.  The Nemesis HP can take higher inflation pressure in the leading edge due to its Cuben 
construction; we recommend that you inflate the HP a little more than you would a normal kite. 

 

Due to the hugely increased risk of impact damage when flying on land, we recommend that land-boarders and 
snowkiters do not exceed the recommended inflation pressure of 10 PSI. Do not store your kite with inflated struts inside a 
vehicle during the summer, as in-car temperatures can rise rapidly, leading to a catastrophic increase in strut pressure. 
We recommend that when storing the kite for any period of time, all the valve plugs be removed from the LE valves. 

Best Kiteboarding will not be responsible for any damage that occurs due to the use of a pressure 
hose/compressor when inflating your kite.
