IMO, much easier giving this to someone who does this all day long as it's a guaranteed 2-3 hour task if the bladder needs to be removed/reinstalled.


And it's the most costly of Airtime repairs because of the labor involved. I'm going to try again with my Cloud. This time with your advice of pumping in up super hard while it's still inside the LE, find the bubbles/pinhole, then I'll at least have an approximate location once I remove the bladder.

Had to turn back at Viento during the KB4C "blow & suck", there & back to Stevenson as this kite looked like a jellyfish in the sky with leaks.
