makatakam Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Other option is to send it to Revolution Kites, or to a kite shop that does repairs and have it replaced with new mesh. Of course you'll have to pay to get it done, but it will be as good as new. Or you can sew a new mesh in yourself. Quote
DeafThunder Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Posted December 4, 2015 my kite still in excellent shape (my opinion) ... so, I'll keep that in my mind, I probably do that when mesh/kite needs the ambulance ride to Rev like a life threatening situation or 6 feet under Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 I had my team mate repair one - she used a sewing machine set on a zig-zag stitch. Large stitches going from good mesh to good mesh. The repair has held under pretty severe use for over 3 years. YMMV 1 Quote
DeafThunder Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Posted December 4, 2015 ^^^ that is smart, but is there a slightly flaw ? ... sewing can cut the mesh with needles ? ... maybe hand sewing is the best option because carefully sewing through holes of the mesh, instead of accident cut the mesh ? we all learn something new everyday ...

SparkieRob Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 One day, in the future, I think revs won't have any mesh screen. It will be open with lots of vertical strips of fabric to hold the LE pocket to the sail. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
