new bladder
I need a new bladder installed on my 9m flexi atom. Seems last friday at EB was all it could handle. Pumped it up at home yesterday and heard a hiss and watched it deflate. Can anyone direct me to a company that will order the correct bladder and install it? Thanks.

airtime. I tried to help with the URL. :confused:
http://www.airtimekite.com/sizing%20...Flexifoil.html Just install it yourself, piece of cake. :) If it's a small hole a good bladder patch will do just fine. |
Its actually a failure of the adhesive at the valve. Will airtime actually put a new bladder in for me?

You can replace the valve with an airtime stick on valve. Although, I've never met anyone who did it successfully. I know plenty who have tried.

Watersports West has them and good at installing them.
Toby probably has some and is in Palmetto if you want to try it yourself. you can try this before buying anything: Micro cup of water 2 minutes,(almost boiling) soak the valve in it and slowly peel it off. If you can get ALL the glue off, you should try a ustick. A new bladder is always nicer, but its 10 bux vs. 100+ bux. |
Jim Haddox at www.kitebladder.com has repaired 2 of my busted bladders and did a fine job. he is in Ormand beach and its only 1 day shipping with Fedex. i found that baby powder makes it slide in real smooth like.

thanks for the help.

jim,
let me know if you still need help. Toby |
