Kiteboarding is a HAZARDOUS sport. Power kites and their lines and control equipment can be 

DANGEROUS to flyers and to anyone in the vicinity of their use. Kiteboarding must be taken se-

riously and we recommend that, at least in the early stages of your use, you seek the guidance 

of professional instructors and experienced kiteboarders. Improper and/or unreasonable use of 

this kite may result in DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to ANY part of your body and to OTHERS. 

Do NOT use your kite near power lines, airports, buildings, automobiles, trees, streets, parking 

lots, rocks, piers, breakwaters, buoys, etc. and keep your kite fly lines away from people and 

ALL obstacles. Always fly in an open area and observe wind and weather conditions, particularly 

in circumstances where you may encounter offshore, onshore, variable or strong winds. Do NOT 

attempt to use your kite on water until you are confident and comfortable with the use of a 

trainer kite on land. Spend time to become familiar with the operation of your kite and remember 

that you are responsible for its operation and for the security of those around you. As you learn 

the sport, work within your own limitations and do NOT exceed them. If you intend to use the 

kite on water, always use appropriate protective gears and flotation devices and do NOT attach 

yourself or tie yourself permanently to the kite lines. The kite is NOT intended for use as a flying 

device nor indeed is it intended as a means of flotation.
