Has anyone experienced the LE stitch coming undone ? Been reading on other forums and it seems an issue with the cab 2012...

Get it stitched up for $20 by your local sailmaker.

This started to happen on my 2011 switchy , right in the centre of the leading edge,
fixed it myself with a heavy duty sewing needle and some heavy thread. cost 5 bucks .... Job done no probs since.

Just for the records. ended up taking my kite to moti on tweed heads he told me that it is a common issue due to self launching. he reinforced both sides with the exactly same stitches and also replicated the black thick fabric on top oh each repair. I think it looked good and it should keep the kite flying for a long time.
