2011 CROSSBOW IDS™ KITE USER MANUAL

KITE CARE

Due to the often extreme nature of kiteboarding, a thorough approach should be taken 

when caring for your kite and all its associated rigging, as well as your protective gear.

PREPARING FOR YOUR SESSION

•  Thoroughly  check  your  protective  equip-

ment  (helmet,  etc.)  to  make  sure  it  is  in 

working order and in good condition.

•  A  frequent  inspection  of  the  kite  and  the 

control system should be made in order to 

identify  punctures,  tears,  or  abrasions  in 

the canopy, struts, or security systems. It 

is also necessary to check the fly lines for 

wear and for unwanted knots, which may 

reduce the strength of the fly lines. Check 

bridle lines and pulleys for wear and replace 

when necessary. 

•  Do not rig on asphalt, cement, gravel, or 

other  abrasive  surfaces;  doing  so  may 

damage  your  equipment.  It  is  best  to  rig 

on  sand  or  grass.  Damage  done  to  your 

equipment by rigging on abrasive surfaces 

will not be covered under warranty.

•  Do not rig among sharp objects that could 

tear the canopy or puncture the struts and 

leading edge bladder.

•  Take  care  not  to  expose  your  flying  lines 

to  sharp  objects  that  may  wear  through 

them.

•  While setting up, secure your kite with sand 

or sand bags. Do not secure your kite with 

rocks  or  other  sharp  or  abrasive  objects 

that may damage your kite.

BETWEEN SESSIONS

•  Never leave an inflated kite unattended on 

the beach for a long period of time. Winds 

may shift or change and the kite may be-

come unsecured and fly off.

•  Do  not  leave  an  inflated  kite  (secured  or 

not)  directly  exposed  to  the  wind  for  any 

length of time. This allows the trailing edge 

to flutter excessively. Any excessive flutter-

ing may quickly break down the finish prop-

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

erties  of  the  material  and  reduce  it’s  lon-

gevity. If you must leave the kite exposed to 

the wind on the beach, place sand or sand 

bags onto the areas of the kite, near the 

trailing edge until the flutter is stabilized. Do 

not use rocks or other sharp objects.

•  Do not leave your kite exposed to sunlight 

for long periods of time. Between sessions, 

choose a shaded area to secure your kite. 

When not in use, stow away.

PROPER STORAGE

•  Always dry your kite prior to rolling or fold-

ing. Folding or rolling a kite when wet may 

affect the color clarity and longevity. 

•  It is recommended to wash the kite com-

ponents  with  fresh  water  and  dry  before 

storing.

•  Clear the kite of sand or other foreign ob-

jects before stowing.

•  Once  it  is  clean  and  dry,  stow  your  kite 

in  the  supplied  bag  in  a  clean,  dry,  cool 

place.

•  Do  not  place  heavy  objects  on  the  bag 

containing the kite.

•  Do not leave your kite inflated in your car or 

car rack box; exposing the kite to extreme 

temperatures  while  inflated  may  damage 

the internal bladders.

•  Wash your control system with fresh water 

from time to time by placing the entire con-

trol system (with lines wound onto the bar) 

into a bucket of fresh water and let it sit for 

5 minutes. Allow to dry thoroughly before 

storing in a dry location.

•  Once it is clean and dry, stow your control 

system in a clean, dry cool place.
