Anyone know who can repair a ripped kite in Sydney . We are talking a whole seem rip in a main strut top to leading edge and a meter of the leading edge seem to the kite.
Thanks
This would be a good place to host a list of repairer's Australia wide.
It would be a good reference for future kitemares. Cmon guys let us know who you are.
if your in nsw moti levy at tweed heads they trade as wake and surf i think, ive had 3 or 4 repairs done by them, you couldnt tell where the repairs had been done
Kitepower in Sydney repaired mine for me a few weeks ago, did a great job I thought. I tore through the leading edge and a foot into the canopy.
i landed my kite on a fence post last year - two massive tears in canopy and they repaired it like brand new for $80
1 week turnaround

Neil at barracoutasails is the best. I've took absolute rubbish to him, it comes back perfect.His a magician.For me at least 12 times including leading edge repairs and once a 60cm x60cm hole needing 3 different colours to rematch on canopy.
we can give you a quote too. turn around is one day and our repairer Ian does amazing work.

Moti is really good too
Neil at Barracuda Sails is definitely worth a try. He has fixed two rips in the canopy on one of my kites - great job, good turn around and even better price.![]()
A lady called Steph does good repairs, she's up in Elanora Heights. Day job is parachute work, but repairs kites in the evening/weekend. Quick turn around, did 3 separate repairs for me, all good. Fair price too. Found her via local Northern beaches kiters, word of mouth.
PM me for her mobile.
Glen in Avalon. I've shredded almost all my kites at one stage or another and he's stitched, repanelled or re-bladdered them as good as new. Just repanelled my 6m that got stomped recently in big surf and stretched the panel before tearing. Obviously they are scarred but they fly as good as ever.
I can pm phone no
Kitepower. We do all repairs, sewing is done by Neil at Barra, but you pay the same price. Neil will not touch any kites needing bladder work, we do that for all Barra repairs.
