Ben Wilson replacement bladder or generic bladder

Postby Kiteus Polaris » Mon Aug 23, 2021 11:43 am

I have some BWS AE2 kites that I just love. However, my 7m2 got a leak and suddenly the main bladder seems to have holes everywhere and I need to replace it. I guess there are no spare BWS bladders to be found?
Anyone having good experience with using generic bladders re-attaching old valves? If so, what brands are available in Europe? I know about Dr Tuba but not sure if they make generic bladders without valves. I stumbled over a European supplyer, I think East Europe, but can’t find it again. Anyone who knows who it could be? Prices were quite ok, good since I have no explanation of the leakage and might as well destroy the new bladder as well…

Thanks for the suggestions. I can't really get if you can buy bladders without valves though.
