Managed to somehow break the little rubber air tube that connects the kite bladder to the small ones (ribs?). it just blew up with bang for no apparent reason and I need to have it replaced.
Anyone know a good place that would do the replacement quickly?
Thanks

Where are you? Thats an easy fix. Any shop should be able to sort you out.
In cannington...I think the nearest shops might be..in freo?
Never had to deal with a broken kite before, frustrating:-)
If it's connected to nipples of valve with cable ties carefully cut them and remove, take it with you to an automotive or good hardware and match up , be careful to make sure the inner diameter is the same as walls of tube differ in thickness, recut with a Stanley knife dip in washing liquid and slip over the nipple , replace cable tie and cut flush excess with nail clippers, if ones gone might be worth swApping the lot as you'll have to buy a meter length , if you hAve a rubber or neoprene sleeve that goes over the connection make sure it's in place as you carnt do it after it's connected up
