We've all done it!
What's the sketchiest repair / fix you've ever done or seen?
I've just done one and I need to feel good about myself again.
16m kite needed a new bladder..... Measured out my 15m bladder from a diff kite and it looked like it would fit. Valves lined up and reached wing tip to wing tip.
So I went for it!!! The 15m was frecked anyway!!
Get to the end and and it pumps up nicely, no twists, valves lined up....... Fu@#king bladder is 10cm too short on each wingtip.......
Packed it super super dense full of industrial bubble wrap (pool cover offcuts)
Works until I can get a new bladder!!
- kite needed a quick repair so as a joke I used a waterproof bandaid and gaffatape ( it was an emergency and it was the old & ruined 15m mentioned above)....... To my surprise, the gaffa tape lasted about 15 minutes....... Waterproof bandaid was still stuck on 2 months later!!
Anybody want a cheap 15m kite??
