Hey PKF'ers,
I just purchased a 70in FixMyKite Tuff replacement bladder for the center strut on my 10m Liquid Force Havoc:

Here is a pic of it laid out next to my other middle strut bladder.
Why does it look so different? I used the kite bladder recommended by the Airtime kite bladder sizing chart here:

Should I try to install it or send it back?

na it should work fine just, its a real plug-and-play sort of deal. Lots of room for error and improvizing. just search for a how to on bladder
installation on youtube.

it just fills the space on the rig , careful attention advised on valve placement.
the TE folds up ,,so... the LE end of the strut to the valve opening is really the only critical point .

Installed! Thanks all. Now I'm re-gluing the valve on yet another strut! When it rains it pours...

cool, i had to reglue a valve once. Aquaseal worked 100% for me.
