I use Stormsure glue. Have been fixing bladders and re-gluing valves for years with it and never had a problem. This is a very flexible rubbery glue that doesn't react with the bladder.
You can buy one 15g unit or 3 x 5g for the same price (see link below). I usually go for the second option since 1 x 5g is enough to re-glue 10 valves or so.
Once opened, keep the glue in the freezer (not fridge like super glue). This will make the glue last for a long time. It doesn't really freeze the glue but bring it to room temperature for a couple of minutes before using it.

Does anyone know how long are the lines that are attached to the trailing edge of a 2016 Naish Pivot 12m?
And if you could tell me the distance between the first and last knot, that would be fantastic!!!






That's a 2016 model. The only difference is that my one is a 12m.
I have a 9m from the same year, but don't think they have the same steering line connection length.

That kite looks like a 2021 model, the rear pigtails on naish kites are 30cm...altough that can change, i would contact wingenuity in Sydney, they are the aussie dealer or your local naish dealer, if no one on here can give you the exact info.

Pivot is a great kite. good luck


Yes, I know this is not a 2016. Only used the photo to show what line I'm talking about. Thanks for the reply, I'll try to find the correct size online. Cheers
