Post subject:  Repair to minor give ad beginning tears in Vantage seat

Vantage seat is beginning to display minor give and slight tears in fabric around some corner seams - appears to only need some reinforcement - like a patch on the underneath side - any suggestions on how to go about as rest of seat is in very good condition - looking at some non-stretch webbing but may be another solution as a stiff webbing may just shift the stress to another area

If it is a stretch area then it needs a stretch patch or it will split further. I actually also use a bit of gym mat on my seat, reduces potential damaged, prevents me getting a rashie ass. More comfortable, warmer in cold weather, and stops water logged well slopping water on my butt (revo 16 with low ride height). Just zipped to back of seat helps it stay in place.

My front seat seam split around the front toggle for raising and lowering due to loose anchor rope catching on toggle and digging into seat when being deployed.
