Pump trouble?
Posted: Mon Mar 21, 2005 3:31 pm
Sunday I pumped up the two kites I got at the swap. I was using a North pump which has the large and small type nozzle heads. Problem is that when the bladders started building pressure, the head would twist off the hose (and deflate the bladder). Someone walked up to me and in passing said something along the lines of "that always happens, you might need to glue it on".
I'd rather not glue it on because I think my 12m uses the larger head. I was thinking about wrapping some electrical tape or something around the plastic that goes into the hose to add tension to lock it in place.
Before I do this, wanted to ask if anyone else had problems like this, and if there is a better solution?
Thanks,
Josh
