Hey Eppo

Is this what you ground your 180 down to.

No - more like a 145cm sq - with slightly less span than the 140. Plus i rounded the tips using a surf 205. This tail is still a speed tail with slightly lower aspect than the 140/180. The 120 requires obviously a quicker cadence on the pump but man has some really good glide (low drag). But hey big diff between the designers and eppos shed lol. My review below.

Was with Aiden yesterday .

120 Dart - Holy ****!

Only a few bits of kit have blown me away over the years. Like game changing kind of experience.

First was the 1250 HaV1 years ago.

Next was the recent ML 45 litre

Now it's the 120 Dart!!

Aiden popped down to mandurah for an early prone session. He had the new prone board (looks good), both of us on the 880/795/60 - and the new 120 dart.

Turns like nothing else, pitch stable and effortless to pump and link with an amazing stall speed that defies logic.

End of story - getting one!

Ps not sure why i'm standing like that ????
