What do you think?
Will it work with a NP hornet 7.2 sail on this old board?
I have not so Much Experience with new sails on old boards yet:)
Since your board is more solemn oriented, it may handle that larger sail, but what concerns me is the lack of liters the board has. If you already have the sail, give it a try, if it's too much sail for the board, then you can down size. Keep us in the loop.
The board was a bit to small for me because I still have to uphall The sail. IT ended in "The Walk of Shame... " . To Day IT was most fun riding my friends board. A 2016 mod Tabou Rocket ltd 118 ltr. I think I have to get one my self. Thats The fastest board I ever tried. I was planning right away with 4.9 sail and it was still possible to uphall The sail.
Sounds like your doing great with the sport, and it also sounds like you would like the Rocket. Good luck and have fun out their.
Actually, it was 108 liters. The thick rails from the flat deck made it much floatier than it's size competitors, the Screamers and Axis 278's, which were a true just over 100 liter board. This was the replacement for the Adagio, a longer but narrower board that never caught on.
E-Rocks were competitive up to the highest levels, up to 1993, including against EnergyXR's, HyperTeks, and all those custom slalom boards like Roberts, Roque Wave, Preister etc. but needed the footstraps moved back and a Tuttle finbox installed. The dark purple models weighed less than 14 lbs., if you picked a light one, and two different rider's made finals of Stroh's World Cup in slalom in San Francisco back in those days.
Very fast LIGHT wind board for sails in the 5.5-7 meter range and flatter waters.
Thank's for info about The Bic board:) Now the board unfortunately had to go because of space problems and my wife is not to happy with a lot of boards?? Well, that said I got a Starboard Carve 121 instead, and the bigger board helps me with The waterstarts so it works out fine from time to time :)
