I am just new to kite blading and recently bought a used pair of Coyotes. Someone on the forum suggested pumping them up with a hand pump as hard as you can get them. I did just that. They feel very hard to the touch and worked fine.

The other recommendation is to remove the brakes. I haven't done that yet. I will try to adjust them as much as I can and if they just get in the way when doing runs under power, out they will come.

Have fun.

I think I read 90-100 psi.
A good bike tire pump will get them there.
I turn down my air compressor release valve to 90 psi and fill. My handheld guage is useless cause it lets half the air out before I can get it seated.
And yea, nix the brake, less weight :wee:

They are rated for 80 PSI but I don't fill them that much. I use a small hand pump and get them hard but not rock hard.

More hard = easier to power slide. Less hard = better traction.
