doing engineering i understand that small faults can cause BIG problems so just want o make sure.

That may eventually turn into a problem. What model kite is this?

It's a 10m Air Evolution Z-Air Box

Did you buy that kite new?
That looks like a repair gone wrong ? I would get it to a sail shop ?
I wondered why Air Evo didn't become a big seller. They have some nice looking kites. I thought they were well built ?

I bought i second hand but it has white stitching throughout so i don't think ist a repair. also the pics are from 4 different cells along the leading
edge. i was surprised aswell as id heard good things about their quality. I have contacted a repair shop for a quote as i don't wan it getting worse.

I would send those photos to Air Evo' and see what they say ! How they defend that poor stitching.
That 4th picture looks most like a bad repair ? Maybe the one cell blew out , the others just got damaged in the crash ?????

the thing is, the type/colour of the stitching is the same for all of the cells on the kite, all the way down :puzzled:
