Hi all,

Quick question, I've managed to break (no idea how) the bungee cord the keeps the back lines in place to help prevent tangling when you drop the kite. The kite still works fine, however, I want to replace the part and can't find it anywhere. Anyone else had some luck?

Kite = 12m North Rebel

We have those parts on order from North, should be here in about 1-2 weeks, about $15 a pair or buy some bungee cord from bunnings or anaconda (probably about same price), Tie a figure of 8 or overhand Knot in each end to make the loops.
Just measure the length of the other side.

Same happened to me, went down to the sail maker and he had some bungy cord and sewed it up for me.

Thanks for the quick replies everyone! @ActionsportsWA, i'll drop you a line seperately and order the parts.

Love the do it yourself ideas, but I'm rather lazy so will grab the North replacements if i can :)

@Calvin6m - It just holds the lines in place if you drop the kite (idea is to help prevent lines from tangling/inverting, i think), nothing you need to do with the kite setup it's all ready to go when you buy the kite.
