How do you remove the piece of plastic out of the bladder? Thank you for kite repair videos, cheers!
@DrewInBrissie2 күн бұрын
Great video as always. I would be very interested in a video comparing the new ultra jet 850 verses the kite 810. I can't find any independent reviews of the 850 and for kiters this comparison would be very helpful.

I never thought such a damage to the bladder could be repaired. Question though. After applying the patch, how does the piece of plastic come out of the bladder and how does the patch not stick to it?

I love very much my 2 AlphasV2 10 and 12m, the only shade is the upwind angle, I know one strut kites are the worst to go upwind... anyway maybe this will be even better!
@jhristu4 күн бұрын
Do you take the valves off when packing these? I've noticed on my first gen Alphas that the valve can tear into the fabric since there is no reinforcement in that area.
@kiteboardingcom14 күн бұрын
After deflating and rolling up your kite always put the valve back in the opening and don’t leave it just hanging out. The edges on valves can cut into the sail if left hanging out and rolled and packed tight.

I know I watched a video of yours recently where you explained that you should put some air in center strut first before inflating the leading edge (or vice versa). I can’t figure out what video this is in. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hey, thanks for another great video. Please could you show some stiching and unpicking the main seam I have tried a few times To unpick the main seam and how to go about closing one, a domestic machine struggles with it so tips advice in this area would be amazing there are not many people fixing kites and wings near me in the North of UK. So I often have to diy to get on water 💧 Thanks for all the tips and help Chris Tomo 😊

@kiteboardingcom1Ай бұрын
@@pkundrat It depends on the harness. Some wing harnesses, like the Mystic Wing Harness have a removable line around the back that you can easily add the ring to. Others like the Ride Engine have a couple D rings that you can add a line to for this purpose.

This is brilliant. Crucial advice! 3 out of 5 struts worked perfectly. The last 2 just won’t slide all the way. Is it crucial to get the collar sitting flush on the valve or if it is half-way and no amount of strength moves it, is that a sufficient seal?
