Single point inflation systems
Single point inflation systems make inflating your kite easy. We want to make replacing bladders that make up single point inflation systems easy as well. Take a look below and let us impress you with our innovations that allow us to support so many different systems.

OPTION valve used in SPRINT system sketch  

Cabrinha SPRINT system
The OPTION valve was designed specifically to integrate with Cabrinha's SPRINT system. You will use the OPTION valve and the included elbow connector. The OPTION valve was designed to accept both the OEM collar that holds the original bladder in place and the retaining ring that holds the latex tubing to the valve. Once installed it is almost impossible to distinguish the OPTION valve from the original valve.

Follow normal installation and assembly instructions when servicing the SPRINT system. The only note of caution is paying attention to the orientation of the valve so that the collar fits correctly.

     

OPTION valve with the tee for North's 2pump system

 

North 2pump system
The OPTION valve was also designed to integrate with North's 2pump system in which all struts communicate via tee-nozzles located at the head of every strut. You will use the OPTION valve and the included tee-connector. Zip ties are included.

Please follow the instructions that outline how to assemble strut bladders with the OPTION valve when used in the North 2pump system. These instructions can be found in the assembly pages.

     
OPTION valve in the onepump system  

Slingshot's original onepump system
You guessed it...the OPTION valve was designed to integrate with Slingshot's original onepump system as well. You will use the OPTION valve and the included straight connector. The flange at the base of the valve will keep it securely in place mimicking the OEM valve. Zip ties are included to make sure everything stays connected.

Follow the normal installation and assembly instructions when servicing the onepump system.

     
Octopus valve setup  

Naish's Octopus system
AIRTIME kite bladders are available with OEM Octopus valves. Octopus valves are not currently available as U-STICK so all bladders must be ordered according to kite make, model, and size. Bladders are assembled and then shipped out on a single order basis.

You will want to visit the manufacturer's web site to see how these systems work and download installation instructions.

     
Octopus used in EZ system  

Best kiteboarding's EZ pump system
Best's EZ pump system is a direct take off on the Naish Octopus system and OEM Octopus valves can be used in place of OEM EZ pump valves. These valves are not currently available as U-STICK so all bladders must be ordered according to kite make, model, and size. Bladders are assembled and then shipped out on a single order basis.

You will want to visit the manufacturer's web site to see how these systems work and download installation instructions.
