Показать описание
SIC designer Mark Raaphorst is the real deal. He lives and breathes SUP design. Being located on Maui a lot of his time is spent refining boards for open ocean downwind paddling. The Bullet 14V2 is his newest creation and it has a much more gentle rocker line that works beautifully in inland wind driven swell conditions. In this video Paddleboard Specialists owner Gary Stone takes it on its maiden voyage in decidedly mellow downwind conditions. What is so amazing is even in these small wind driven swells the Bullet catches ANY glide easily and takes off gliding beautifully. It is also remarkably stable for a board 27.25" wide making it really forgiving as well. Watch the video and see. We are anxious for a much bigger wind day to get on it again!

Hi, I am about 85kg and considering this board or the 17f bullet. We have some nice downwind places in Harstad, Norway, but most of them don´t have large period swells. Do you have any suggestions in regards to 14 versus 17? The waves are building in stretches from 10km to 40km.

Can't wait to demo one.  The board is not very visible on the water.
