Used Kiteboarding Kites — Pre-Owned & Demo Deals, Inspected, Proven, and Ready to Ride

Welcome to the Elite Water Sports Pre-Owned & Demo Kites Collection - the most trusted place in Florida to buy professionally inspected used kiteboarding kites and gently used demo gear. Whether you're a beginner looking for your first affordable setup, an intermediate rider building a multi-kite quiver, or an advanced kiteboarder seeking a deal on a high-performance model, this collection delivers unmatched value backed by local expertise.

Every kite in this section has been carefully evaluated by our in-house technicians and instructors in St. Petersburg, FL, ensuring the same safety, performance, and reliability standards we expect from the kites we fly ourselves. When you buy a used kite here, you're not guessing its condition - you're getting transparent grading, detailed photos, accurate descriptions, and honest recommendations based on real riding experience.

If you want premium gear without premium prices, this is the most innovative way to ride.

What You'll Find in This Pre-Owned & Demo Collection

Based on the product grid shown in your uploaded file, this collection includes kites from the world's top brands - often with dramatic savings of 20% to 75% off retail. Models include:

Cabrinha Switchblade (2014, 2016, 2020)

A legendary freeride design known for durability, relaunch ease, and smooth power delivery - excellent for beginners and intermediates.

Duotone Rebel 2019

A high-aspect freeride/big-air kite offering massive boosting power, now available at a deeply discounted price.

Core XLITE, XR7, XR8 (Demo & Used)

Premium German-engineered performance for riders wanting lightweight foiling kites (XLITE) or industry-leading big air capabilities (XR series).

Airush Lithium V13 Demo Models

A forgiving, stable, all-around kite ideal for progression, with several colorways and sizes shown across pages 1–2.

Naish Boxer S28 Used & Demo

An ultralight single-strut design ideal for foiling and light wind, including orange, slate, and invasion models shown in your collection.

Ozone Enduro V4 (Demo)

A versatile freeride wave/freestyle kite, extremely popular for riders seeking predictable handling and durability.

North Orbit 2025 Demo Models

Seen throughout pages 2–3 in multiple colors and sizes, the Orbit demo kites are among the best clearance-value performance kites in the world - perfect for sending big air and progressing in St. Pete winter wind conditions.

Maui Cloud Kite

A unique ultralight model popular among foil and surf riders, offering drift and efficient low-wind flying.

Reedin SuperModel HTF Demo

A fast-turning, playful all-around kite available at a substantial discount, shown in bright Neptune Blue demo configuration.

Whether you're after big air, foil efficiency, freeride control, or dependable stability, there's a used or demo option here for every style and riding level.

Inspection, Grading & Transparency: What Makes Our Collection Different

Unlike private sales, where history is unknown, every kite in this collection undergoes professional inspection, confirmed by the grading section referenced on page 4 of your PDF.

✔ A-Grade (Excellent)

Minimal wear, crisp canopy, often demo-quality.

✔ B-Grade (Light Wear)

Fully functional with minor cosmetic signs of use.

✔ C-Grade (Cosmetic Wear, Full Performance)

Still flies safely and powerfully - an unbeatable budget choice.

Our team meticulously checks:

  • Bladders & valves

  • Canopy seams

  • Leading-edge condition

  • Bridle lines

  • Pigtails & attachment points

  • Bar compatibility

  • Inflation system integrity

Any repair history - including shop-performed leading edge repairs (like the Airush Lift 9m shown on page 1) - is disclosed clearly.

This transparency is why riders across the U.S. trust Elite Water Sports when buying used kites online.

Inspected & Ready

  • Canopy & seam check; valves & bladders pressure-tested
  • Bridle & pigtails inspected; bar compatibility noted
  • Any wear disclosed in photos & description

Clear Condition Grades

Typical grades: A (excellent), B (light wear), C (cosmetic wear; fully functional). Ask for close-ups if you need more detail.

Used Kite FAQ

Are used kites safe?

Yes—when properly inspected. We check canopy panels, leading-edge/strut seams, valves, bladders, bridles, and pigtails, then call out any cosmetic wear. If something doesn’t meet our ride-ready standard, we fix or we don’t list it.

What’s included with a used kite?

Each listing notes what’s in the bag (kite only vs. “with bar & lines”), repair notes, and condition grade. Message us if you need compatible bars or a pump—we’ll bundle a deal.

How do I pick the right size for Tampa Bay?

Most riders here use 9–12m as a daily driver and add a 6–8m for fronts or a 13–15m for lighter days. We’ll size to your weight, board, and favorite launch.

Do you ship?

Absolutely. Same-day shipping on most orders. Local riders can also choose in-store pickup at our St. Petersburg shop.
