Dr.Tuba undertakes that he will carry obligations resulting from warranty conditions. a. Replacement Bladders All replacement bladders have 3 year limited warranty for factory faults on welds. Replacement bladders are made upon brand's original blueprints if not stated otherwise. All replacement bladders are custom made per order, we do not hold any stock of original factory ones. Special terms for return/exhange applies on such products. Warranty void if ordered bladders are made for prototype kite, pre-serie kite or demo kite, and not advised to us for correct lenghts and valve positions on such kite bladder. When original valves are not available anymore, original valves are in bad quality, or we can't find exact valves, we have the right to use our own replacement valves, without prior notice. We guarantee proper functionality of the bladders where we had to replace original valves with our own or replacement ones. All bladders are Quality Control (QC) tested prior shipping. Minimum QC test time is 8h. We may advise or ask customer for the measures check to minimize all unclarities with the bladder blueprints. We are not responsible in any way if the customer did not take the measures correctly or sent us wrong measures, or ordered bladder for wrong model year. A 30 percent return fee applies on all our custom bladders as described in these terms. For older kites more than 5 years, it is strongly advised that customer confirms the acceptance of the replacement bladder with us prior buy. If the replacement bladder was ordered for kite more than 5 years old, and it's found that was ordered for wrong kite model year or with wrong valve setup, then we have no obligation to accept the return and exchange for correct one. There might be differences between original blueprints and the factory installed bladders. Due to nature of the workmanship or welding processes there may be some standard shape and welding derivations from original blueprint valve centre positions. From experiences we found that factory bladders can be made too tightly compared to outer skin of the kite, so that we have the right to make the bladder slightly longer and wider compared to original factory bladder or blueprint, but no more than 30mm in width and 50cm in lenght for leading edge bladder and 20mm in width and 25cm in length for strut bladders total compared to blueprint design. Knowing that, we can extend one pump valve positions accordingly. We constantly update our bladder database to match factory bladders. But we are not responsible if original bladder blueprint measures are made too big by brand compared to factory bladders. In such case we can help by installing the bladders into the kite, customer needs to send to and pick up the gear at Dr.Tuba repair loft. b. Kite valves, Replacement Adhesive Valves UniPUMP one pump valves have 3 years of limited warranty for weld and breaks. Original valves from kite brands has 1 year limited warranty for weld only. Due to nature of the welding process there may be a small derivations in off-centre welding, but no more than 4mm. 11.
