Kite Bladder Hook V1-V2 16m PLKB AKPL90555

Kite Bladder Hook V1-V2 16m PLKB AKPL90555

Description:

This replacement leading-edge (LE) bladder is designed specifically for PLKB Hook V1 and V2 tube kite designs in the 16m size. It provides the core air-holding structure for the kite’s leading edge, delivering reliable inflation, stable profile, and consistent flight behavior. Constructed from high-grade TPU bladder material with reinforced welds and abrasion-resistant finishes, the bladder is built for repeated inflation cycles and extended use in saltwater environments. Precision molding ensures a snug, secure fit within the Hook V1/V2 tube structure and compatibility with standard kite valves and pump fittings for fast service and minimal rigging time. By restoring correct air retention and profile stiffness, this bladder improves handling, upwind performance, and longevity of the kite while reducing the risk of mid-session deflation. Ideal as a spare part for repairs, maintenance, or performance tuning, it pairs well with valve rebuild kits, inflation pumps, and patch/repair kits.
