i saw this sic board on a car at the creek. it's not the f16 and it not a sic bullet 17'4. why it looks 14'. just had to have a closer look. the owner got out of his car and i asked the question. yes it's sic bullet 14' er. his mate brought two to back from hawaii and he got one of them.

gee they look a good dw board. same 'volumey rounded off rails. area pin tail it has a harder rail up the front than the 17'4

i wonder when we will see them in oz

They've already got the 14 bullet in Oz Lacey. The production ones came in at the same time as the 17'4. I paddled the Pre-production demo model at the Bondi to Watsons Bay and Narrabeen races in Sydney last year (unfortunatelt didnt get great downwind conditions for either race) and Pete Tullet had it on display/demo with the rest of the SIC range at Coffs in December.
As with it's bigger brother, the Maui versions do feel slightly different to and lighter than production boards.
Great board but definately a downwind specialist.

i didn't think that was the 14 bullet, i thought it was the x 14 or something????

anyway, its the first i've seen

as for them being lighter over there, gee ali, my 17'4 comes in somewhere comfortably under 14 kgs. i can't see any board that size and volume being lighter then that..

the hawaiian 14' didn't look any different to my 17'4 in regards to production

cheers

pretty much what the breeze is saying. the right line from north kirra to alley will be the key for the guns
