If it was just wet sand that got stuck to it just let the sand dry then shake it off.

If that is a problem for you then give up now!! What did you expect? Just enjoy it. Always a good reminder of the last session if you still keep finding sand in interesting places.

Allow the kite to dry, dust off sand and remove any sand from your pulleys (if you have any). When you get home submerge bar and lines in fresh water to remove any sand and allow them to dry before finally packing away.

 

This will keep moving parts moving and your lines fresh:)

Unless you have a very understanding mum/wife/girlfriend, don't dry/ shake/ clean a sandy kite in the middle of the living room floor!!! ;o)

See thats the advantage of living with another kiter, we gave up worrying about sand appearing all over ages ago!

You could try seal and glide once its applied the sand wont even stick to it and the canopy becomes all most water proof as well.
