Our selection is updated regularly, so check back often!
Searching for reliable second-hand kitesurf gear? At GlissEvolution, our Pornichet shop has been a local favorite since 2005. Every piece of second-hand equipment is thoroughly checked and validated by our team of experienced riders before it ever hits the sales floor. You'll find kites, boards, bars, and harnesses all in great condition, letting you ride without breaking the bank. This section is a key part of our kitesurf universe.
Why Buy Your Second-Hand Gear from GlissEvolution?
Unlike private listings, our second-hand service guarantees you equipment that's been thoroughly checked. Each item is inspected by expert technicians who have been kitesurfing for over twenty years: we meticulously examine the fabric, seams, valves, lines, and ensure all safety systems are fully functional. You'll also benefit from our personalized advice to help you choose the right gear for your skill level, body size, and local spot conditions, because a poorly adapted kite can make learning difficult.
Our Consignment Service
Looking to sell your kitesurf equipment? Our consignment service makes it easy: simply drop off your gear in-store, and we'll evaluate it, photograph it, and list it for sale. You get paid as soon as the item sells, without the hassle of managing listings or dealing with buyers. It's also an excellent way to refresh your quiver, using the proceeds from your old gear to finance new equipment.
Choosing Your Second-Hand Gear Wisely
For beginners, we recommend a versatile and forgiving kite that's easy to power up. Avoid wave kites or highly technical models, which are best suited for advanced riders. A standard-size twintip (around 136 to 140 cm) will work well for most body sizes. To progress, expand your quiver with additional kite sizes, or transition to a more specialized board like a Surf, foil, or strapless.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is second-hand equipment covered by a warranty?
While second-hand items do not come with a manufacturer's warranty, every piece of gear is meticulously checked by our team before being put up for sale. Kites, bars, and safety systems are all thoroughly inspected to guarantee you reliable equipment.
How does consignment work?
Simply bring your equipment to our Pornichet store. We'll evaluate it together, agree on a price, and then handle everything else: photos, online listing, and buyer management. You get paid as soon as the sale is complete.
How do you check second-hand kites?
We thoroughly inspect the fabric for wear, tears, and any repairs, along with the seams, Leading Edge, valves, and bridles. Kites with significant defects are either not offered for sale or are clearly identified.
What budget should I plan for starting with second-hand gear?
Your budget will vary depending on the condition and age of the equipment. Generally, buying second-hand allows you to save 30 to 50% compared to new gear. Contact us to learn about available equipment that fits your budget.
