The PKS Kite Sand Weight Bag is an essential item for kiteboarders.

You can use the sand weight bag to stop your kite from blowing away on a windy day, reduce wear on your kite sail by stopping fluttering when the kite is parked, and it can also be used for self launching. It also works great to self-launch a foil kite if you have a grassy launch spot.

Just fill the sand weight bag 3/4's of the way full with sand and close with the velcro. The sand weight bag's double-fold velcro closure system prevents sand from coming out when you don't want it to. The four separate compartments for sand allow the bag to be laid over the leading edge of the kite and not have all the sand rush to the tips of the bag. Tough and durable material will take a beating and heavy-duty webbing will take the load of the sand and then some. Every kiter could use one or two of these.
