i have been trying to get a le bladder for a 07 7m fuel i found them at slingshot sports in the u.s after trying 3 different emails and getting the replys from the same guy . he tells me they dont ship to australia . wtf i have tried to buy from anyone local but theres none to be found so thats why i tried from the u.s they even state international shipping except australia . anyway does anyone know where i can buy a LE bladder for a fuel .
Really your still flying a 2007 kite, ok well the overall shape of the kite hasn't changed much so maybe you should look at later model bladders to fit your kite

i'm still flying a quiver of 07 fuels. in my opinion they haven't gotten any better since then.
There are company's that you can get the item shipped to then they forward it to your address, you just have to pay a little extra - not sure what their called though...

Yeah it just really suprised me that the sail and stitching has lasted some 7yrs, how many hrs per wk are you out on the water ?
the cloth & stitching are fine- it's the bladder glue that gives up over time.
i have an 05 15m fuel that still gets a run every now and again.
but you're right, sessions have been pretty rare for the past 3 seasons due to starting a family...
If all else fails you could try an after market bladder- www.briskites.com.au/index.php?l=product_detail&p=712
thanks for the info thats a great help at least i have a new plan where to start looking again . i have to say my fleet of 07 fuels where the best fuels to date i have newer ones but not as much grunt as the o7 and on 5th line . i only have the seven left and it gets alot of use and is still all good no tears or problems just a very slow leak it takes about 2 hours before you start to notice i but when i am using it its normally a good day and i dont wont to come in and pump up again . it interesting how well those fuels have lasted after how much they have been used . i have a 2010 RPM thats not had as near much use as the fuels that is so rotten every time i use it it tears . it very past its use by and its half the age of the fuel .
