Description:

The Kite Bladder Hook V1-V2 8m is a direct replacement leading-edge (LE) bladder designed specifically for PLKB Hook V1 and V2 8m tube kites. It restores the kite’s inflation chamber to factory performance, providing reliable air retention and structural support for consistent flight behavior. Constructed from high-strength, abrasion- and UV-resistant TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) with precision-welded seams and reinforced valve area, this bladder offers long-lasting durability and airtight performance. Its accurate fit and finish make installation straightforward, minimizing downtime and reducing the need for permanent repairs. Ideal for riders who value consistent pressure, stable canopy shape and predictable handling, the bladder helps maintain the kite’s original depower, relaunch and drift characteristics. Compatible with standard kite pumps and replacement valves, it’s an essential spare part for regular maintenance or emergency field repairs.
