Repair

You can repair your kite bladders fairly easily as described on the Bladder Repair page of the Kitesurfing School Website.

You can repair minor tears on your kite by using sail repair tape (regular and heavy duty sail tapes in variety of colors can be purchased at the Chandlery marine store on Pouline near Richmond, 820-7642). For more serious tears (more than 3" or at stressful locations), they should be repaired by a professional.
