The bullet is 3 cam larger luff pocket than the grand prix on a sdm mast.
Heaps of low down foil and tension
this sail will fly.
The chairs are retro just like me
BBQ galore $70 ea you too can be cool and retro
asked the naish dealer about them, said he wasn't importing them cause they're too expensive.....
I checked the specs, they rig on shorter mast than average it seems.
What is considered retro in nsw has only just made it to tassie for the first time
I had two good sails on the Naish bullets 6.4m in rough water now, and I am very happy pleased with speed and just how steady and willing they are deep of the wind. bottom end power is very good. I have fixed the rotation stiffness from first session by backing off the batten tension works very well.
All in all, a sweet race sail. top looks and very fast and super steady deep off the wind for GPS
the bullet looks great.
What mast have you got it riged on in the photo? also is that a naish 180 carbon boom? what are they like?
I got that boom cause it was the cheaper on the market.
It squeaks (apparently not the only brand to do that) while sailing
The mast reduction falls off easily so you better keep an eye on it
The little red lines on the grip come off real quick.
Seems very solid (been using it for a couple of months)
The clamp is very tight, doesn't swivel easily.
But still a good buy. (700$ locally)
The Mast is the 430 sdm carbon Naish 90% works very well in the sail.
Boom is light stiiff and it does squeak
nice boom overall very happy with it.
Went for a first run on the 7.8 Bullet over the weekend and that is a very nice balanced sail as well, heaps of low end grunt and super light and easy top end speed. The sail has heaps of twist so the power is locked low and is easy to hold that power down. nice to point upwind and light in the hands when comming out of the gybe. Used the 7.8 on the Naish sp ltd 135 that board, gybes so nice for a big board it just so much fun in light wind adventure sailing.
Merry Christmas Russ
Hello Tassierocks!
ask you if its moore bottom end in the new Bullet than Stealth and GP? Remember the last year (2010) with Stealth, realy good bottom end and also so nice top end, specialy 7.8 and 6.4. GP was realy good 2011 but something happend 2012, i think it was the short boom.....
Waiting now for bullet 7.0 7.8 8.8 and also a bullet 115. Save the SP80, 95, 128 and 135. Also the GP 5.8, 6.4.
Its realy fun to read your text and waiting for the new stuff, but its so ****ing cold here in Sweden yet!
Totaly crazy this year, full winter in april! -10-15c in the in the nigths and maximum 5-6 c at the days if the sun is shining.......But my new surf stuff arrive soon from China and Thailand!
