OUCH!! Luckily it looks like it is just the cover for the bladder. So it could be used as is or cosmetically covered if the bladder holds air. I thought if it could be peeled off a Ranger cover might work, but looking at it I don't think so.. Scott will know more.
Personally I would doubt that it is a Zeagle wing. Any tags on the bladder?
 
the only zeagle tags i could find were one one the wing lower left side in pic & on the warning label of the harness area.the american flag is on the left shoulder harness.an old dive shop label looks like it was sewn over the zeagle label on right shoulder strap.
 
Zeagle wing it is then. Looks like it might have came off a Ranger since it has the quick links on the side. Probably a 45lb lift?
Scott should be through in a day or so and give you a definite answer. If not PM him (Scott Zeagle).
 
Best thing to do is just have the dive shop send it in to us. We can look at it and see if we can patch it up...cost will be minimal, unless it is unrepairable, but it is tough to say without actually seeing it...

Thanks,

Scott
 
could I sent this direct to zeagle? if so what address? dept? any form i need to send withn it?

thanks
 
Give them a call! Tell them your situation and they will take care of you. Don't forget to get an RA#..return authorization number. This may not be the way Zeagle likes to handle repairs but that has been my only choice.
 
If you have a dealer near you, it is easier (on us) if you go through them. If you don't have a dealer nearby, you can call us for an RA# and ship it yourself...just make sure you put a note inside stating the problem, as well as contact info!!
