Go on do it now !!!! go check your ZIPPERS on your board and kite bag . I just found 3 sized zippers on mine . Yes I know should have sparyed some silicone on them at the end of summer but was just dreaming that the season wasn't going to end .
Would be horrible to get to the beach wind kicken ass and you cant get your kite out because of a sized zipper and have to destroy your bag to get in .

Happy winds and bring on summer .

Another tip, if it has seized don't force it open. Grab a pen and push the tip between the teeth of the zipper and you can then open it. The pour warm water into the zip later to free it up.

You can also give them a tiny squirt with WD40 and leave overnight the salt should dissolve and you'll get them working again.

The pen trick that NuKing mentioned is used by the baggage handlers around the world esp 3rd world countries!!
