I'd tape both side if it's a hole so you don't have a sticky bit exposed, if it was a little cut then one side would be fine.

cheers,i'll patch both sides to be double sure

IMO tearaid type I is best canopy, clean both sides with alcohol wipe,, cut 2 circular patches, use a cap or lid as template, line up the tear with decorators tape to its original position, place on patch , turn over remove decorators tape then place patch aligned on the opposite side,, get a hair dryer and nylon roller for an even better grip, I've done heaps of these for locals , 4 years on and my mates bandit repairs are still as new, IMHO the canopy repair tape is too stiff and I find it peels easier and is generally not as long lasting
