Is it a worthy product? I spend 5-6 months every year in 3rd world countries with no stitch shops handy:

Take a look at these guys:

http://www.kitefix.com/catalog/index.php

I bought and used their kit... seems pretty comprehensive, though valves are a separate purchase/issue. It worked well and held together for a number of session until I was able to get my kite to the Dangler for repair.

Also happy w/ KiteFix except the steep prices on their gluefix (1oz for 14.50 plus s/h from Canada)

Would be sweet if there was a Gluefix alternative that was affordable and provided same results.

yep its good stuff. you just need a hot iron to apply it, and its permanent. I patched a tear with it a couple years back and its still solid.
