Anyone no a good and reliable repairer in the VIC area.

You want it done right then send it to moti levi in NSW. Nothing but praise from me and the rest of the seabreeze community. All say "I"?

Just remove the bladder and post it to Kitepower in Sydney, very fast turnaround and guaranteed repairs. Address on the website.

I've used the professionals and had the repairs fail first session back.
Cost me an arm and a leg for the repair and they just used stick on patch. The post up to QLD and the frieight to return was not cheap either. You cant get a propper seal with sticky patch over a hole that's near the edge of a seam.

If you want it done right do it yourself.

Make some felt covered wooden dowels. Get some old bladder material. Use your home electric iron and some cooking paper from the supermarket.

I had a good experience when I sent a kite (for bridle repair) and lines for chickenloop/QR replacement, to KP Sydney. Great communication.

KitePower fixed my bladder quick and cheap. I had pulled it (LE) out and couldn't find the leak, and now fixed the kite is great. Worth the money.
