Renting kitesurf equipment - where and how?

Do you want to stay flexible and only rent for a few days?
Then, we advise you to rent kite equipment at your local kite school. You will probably end up with 80-100€ per day for a Kite+Bar+Board.
But if you want to rent for your 1 to 2 weeks vacation, it’s perhaps about 400-500€ for one week and up to 1.000€ for two weeks, depending on the deal you make.
Expensive? Maybe. But remember that you are also flexible during that time and don´t need to maintain or carry the equipment to the spot. You are usually ready to go – at least as long they have the equipment you desire.

But are you looking into renting kite equipment tailored to your needs and want to use it for longer than two weeks? Then, in most cases, even our ‘most expensive’ 1-month leasing duration has more to offer and is likely cheaper. And the best thing? You now have your desired kite equipment and setup for the whole month.

Kitesurfing rental from Salty Lemon

Salty Lemon offers a flexible kitesurfing subscription, with which you can put together your desired kite equipment easily and rent it with a duration ranging from 1 month and up to 2 years. The kite equipment will be sent to your home and you can use it worldwide wherever the wind takes you. Our equipment insurance automatically covers you, and with our innovative swap option, you can adapt your equipment to changing conditions and needs. And if you got too fond of your kite gear, we are providing you with a buy-out option at the end of your leasing duration.

Kitesurf Equipment Costs - Example for Beginners & Pros

Are you faced with the challenge of buying new kite equipment and are overwhelmed by the selection of kite brands and the almost endless options and variations? Also, are you worried your piggy bank may not be fat enough to buy your desired kite equipment?

We can’t tell you if your piggy bank is fat enough. However, we would like to give you an overview of the costs you would have to pay:

Buying Kitesurfing Equipment

Are you ready to sacrifice your fat piggy bank for fabulous new kite equipment? We believe that such sacrifice is worth it to bring your kitesurfing game to the next level! However, the extent to which you must put your piggy on a diet is very individual and depends entirely on how much kite equipment you need and from which brand it may be. So that we don’t leave you out in the cold, we have put together a few examples of figures (as of April 2024) for an average equipment setup from Core Kiteboarding: 

  • CORE Nexus 3 in 9sqm: 1.899€
  • CORE Nexus 3 in 12sqm: 2.199€
  • CORE Sensor 3S Pro Bar: 799€
  • CORE FUSION6 incl. Union Pro 5 Pads: 1.448€

According to that, you would be at a total of 6.345€. Can your piggy bank handle that? On the other hand, if things get tight, you can surely get up to a 10% discount on the total price through expert advice at the local kite shop.

This is still too high of a cost for you? Well, then we recommend you look for the equipment on the second-hand market. With some luck, you can save up to half the regular price for similar equipment and good quality. Found a great deal and material in top condition? Congratulations and “lucky you” 😉

To ensure this works out, we recommend that you closely examine the material, inspect it before buying and, ideally, test it. You should keep in mind that this is like the purchase of a used car: Bought as seen! No warranty. No insurance. No Service.

You don’t feel like raiding your piggy bank and don’t have the nerve to do the time-consuming research and uncertainty of the used market?

You’re lucky – we have the solution to (almost) all your problems!

No problem. Just drag and drop the kite gear you would like to have. You will always receive checked and gear to insure a maximum of safety but also with all the advantages and services.

Our kite gear becomes a “pre-season”-Label as soon as a new model exists. The gear has most likely already been used and will be checked and verified by our Salty Quality Assurance before it arrives at your doorstep. This way, you will always have the safety and security of equipment in good condition.

No worries – Salty Lemon got your back!

Our insurance covers damage and theft to kites, bars and boards.

In case of damage or theft please get in touch with us. Together we will decide what’s the easiest, fastest and most effective solution to get you back on the water as soon as possible.

It’s important you also get in contact with local police and send us the investigation report in an event of theft.

Your deductible in any case of damage or theft is 10% of the cost for repair or replacement of your gear. (min. 50€)

Loss of equipment is not covered with our insurance.

We would want you to have a lot of fun, be safe and sound every time you launch your kite and offer all our customers well treated, high-quality gear.

Therefore we require a certain level as for your riding and kite-handling skills.

You should be independent and ride upwind if you want to rent with Salty Lemon. That would be equivalent to IKO Level 3K or VDWS Level 5.

If you’re just doing your first water starts or similar please contact us and so can figure out a solution for you to hook you up with Salty Lemon gear.

Shipping within Germany is included and without any extra cost. (excluding islands)

For international shipments within the EU and shipments to German islands there will be an extra cost of 15€ per package.

For kite subscriptions incl. boards there will be 2 packages. Kites + Bar only 1 package.

There may be extra cost for international island delivery within the EU.

Express shipping is possible with surcharge.

We do understand that you might get too fond of your kite gear. Some are even falling in love – because it’s simply great!

To give you a maximum of service and flexibility, we are offering you a buy-out option, which is based on the value of your kite gear and the monthly payments you have already done. This way, we are not splitting your new love and we are wishing you all the best. But please invite us to the wedding.
