Hi Rollzee

Although I don't know the length of the bladder I can say that although there is generally some 'dead space' at the ends but I think 21ft would be too short in this case.

I can actually supply you with a replacement ready to go for this kite so maybe give me a buzz before putting the effort into buying a blank bladder the fitting all the valves.

The 28 foot bladder is perfect for you mate. Fixmykite are a great source of bladders and parts. I use them all the time.

You'll need to transfer the valves over to the new bladder. Send it all to me or to a local kite repairer and we'll be able to do it all for you and post it all back, with instructions on how to fit.

Good luck
