Technical details

When the boat kite is facing down on the ground, resting on its leading edge, the trailing edge has a tendency to flap in the wind, which quickly generates premature wear. In order to minimise these risk areas, the KOBRA is equipped with Dacron "wear protector", all along the trailing edge. As the wing tips are not affected by this phenomenon, the "wear protectors" are not present between the T4 and T5 struts. If you need to return to the beach while sitting in the kite, the "life saver" handles sewn on the under-surface of the wing tips will be convenient for steering the KOBRA and SKORPIO as well as possible. The T1 is equipped with a double use strap: - It enables you to attach the strap of the pump to it, in order to inflate the KOBRA without holding it. - You will benefit from an easy and safe handhold to carry your KOBRA up-wind, inner-surface facing up. When you are preparing to store your kite for a long time, we advise you to deflate it completely, and to open all the valves. This will avoid any risk of the valve plugs becoming deformed and not sealing properly.
