You'll appreciate a quick preventative fix of using the right stitch pattern and material. If it's just a quick run along the seam to "zip" up and reinforce it only takes a few minutes and roughly $20.

I just sold a kite and ran a quick stitch over a suspicious area. I have better peace of mind. Plus it saves a blow out which is ulitimately more expensive to mend the fabric and fix the bladder.

I have a full repair side this business. It's not meant to be a sales arena in here but I'd be happy to get you fixed (that's sounds funny).
