Does anyone know where I can get kite compression bags in WA or just Oz?
Been calling a bunch of kite shops with no luck. Leaving in a few weeks so probably can't wait for an overseas delivery...
Looking for the X3 kite compression kit but doesn't have to be that one.

Thx :)

Just use a vac bag I've used them every time I've travelled cost about $9 most hardware stores have them and you can use your kite pump to do it

We've got them At Kite Surf SUP- Woodys & Scarbs.
We sell the clever version that only needs a kite pump to suck it all dry (& compact).
3 x vacuum bags for about $30 (from memory - which may not be too reliable at this hr on Sat night!!)
Give me a call - 0430 966 397 - to get the real story.

They don't save any weight, and only a bit of space/volume, but have the potential to damage your kite, if the kite is packed too tightly.
The valves can be damaged and if the kite has spars or battens they can be broken.

Howards Storage world has them and I'm fairly sure Bunnings do too, personally I would not use them.
