There is a forum over in the sailboarding section regarding gear storage. Was just wondering how people store their kite gear? photos would be great!

How often do you need to replace your bladders?

Does the North board have a wider stance option? looks like it could do with one. Top board looks like a goer

BS. I challenge you to leave your kites in the boot on a sunny day and let's see.

I've had one kite for almost 3 years now (Core Xr3), lives in my car year round and the bladder is fine. The station I park my car at is near the beach so I just jump in and get straight out for a kite. I did once leave my surfboard in there on its side fully waxed and it melted off on to my car seats.....

LOL! That's gold right there... Damn autocorrect!

I have more tubes than foils, by the way... For the time being. In the cat now is three fouls and 5 tubes.
