Doesn't look like too many solutions to this problem are out there. I posted this thread on some other Comp Arf Yak threads maybe more people will see it and have some suggestions.

Comp-Arf needs to address this with a real fix.

Ray Labonte told me to glue 1/8" ply from thr front to back of the canopy frame just above the mounting tabs, Ray said this stoppped his from cracking
He also told me that they are looking for a fix to the problem, I think one thing they can do is make them out of thicker plastic.
