Hey Hybrid_z,
Follow the Naish guide in this pdf, shows you how to replace the bladder

~~http://www.naishkites.com/pdf/english.pdf~~

Its from the downloads section on the Naish site, I would also recommend using some babypowder. Cover the bladder in it before you start to feed it through as this will help it slide into place easily. Good luck

Just did it on the leading-edge bladder on a Cabrinha 14m - not as daunting as it seems - and is quick if you have a helper and some thin rope to thread through and gently draw the bladder back into its sheath
