I know you need this right away but every kiter should have this kit. It has saved me 2 bladders already.

Super Glue works well if you clean the surfaces and roughen the bladder with sandpaper. Apply pressure around the valve seat for several hours before installing and inflating the repaired bladder.

IMO "Shoe Goo" has done the trick for me as far as valve stem to bladder repairs.

But don't be in a rush, let it dry for the full 24hrs or you've just wasted your time.

it will work for a few hours and then your kite will deflate, save your self the trouble (getting stuck out and having to self rescue your self), and get a new bladder or a new kite.

I totally agree. It's not worth the time and trouble. Period

Kim,

Nice sales pitch. You real? or bot?
Since I know you aint real, maybe Rick or someone will just axe your account.

Likely a Spambot. I have to ban about 5 to 8 a day currently. It makes it easier when they use a common IP like Kim. Normally they lie dormant long enough for me to take them out. Kim was faster than usual.

Once we get vBulletin up and running hopefully the spambots will be like flys outside a screen door with us on the inside able to avoid the current plague of forum spambots.
