Kite Bladder Hook V1-V2 14m PLKB AKPL90554

Kite Bladder Hook V1-V2 14m PLKB AKPL90554

Description:

The PLKB Kite Bladder for Hook V1-V2 14m is a replacement leading-edge (LE) bladder engineered specifically for PLKB Hook V1 and V2 tube kite designs. It restores air-holding integrity and shape to the kite, ensuring consistent inflation, stable flight characteristics, and reliable relaunch performance. Constructed from durable thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-based materials with reinforced seams, the bladder balances flexibility with puncture resistance for long service life under regular use. Its precision fit for the 14m Hook profile helps maintain the kite’s intended aerodynamic foil and pressure distribution, improving handling and depower response. Designed for easy installation and secure valve compatibility, the bladder simplifies field repairs and scheduled maintenance so riders can get back on the water quickly. The durable construction and exact contouring also help reduce flutter and fabric abrasion inside the leading edge, enhancing overall kite longevity.
