Hello All!
Blew one of my bladders today - anyone know who does bladder repair on the island? (I am in Nanaimo).
Cheers!

And if you are not a DIY type, Comox Kite Repair can handle most any repair for wings and kites.

Duotone wings come with this inner tube patch kit

Leitch McBride Sailmakers (Paul Betts) in Sidney does sail, wing, kite material and bladder repairs. Their ad is right on top of BWD homepage. Paul has been repairing for decades and does a great job!
