Check out this step-by-step guidance for replacing one of the fibreglass battens that run from the leading edge to the trailing edge of the R1 V5 on sizes 10m through to 21m. These battens provide lightweight reinforcement and distribute load while maintaining the shape of the profile during angle-of-attack changes and turbulent airflow. This drastically improves overall performance as the foil remains true to the designed shape.

With good care and attention, the R1 V5 will provide long-lasting and reliable performance, but like all ultra-high-performance machines, it needs careful handling on and off the water. The R1 V5 must be packed exclusively using the concertina method. Packing and storing the kite using any other method (e.g. rolling, folding) will void the warranty. The reinforcement battens are integral to the design and must not be manipulated out of their intended shape, as this could damage the battens and/or kite, compromising its stability and performance.
