Not to get us off topic but how are the quests vs the v2 rockets?

720s is such a beauty...

Hopefully testing the 2.4m LTX Thursday. 2nd session on the 3.1m LTX at the least.

Hydro Gav throwing out the “Game Changer” call. Things are getting very interesting!

Heard back from PPC on the low end for the 2.7m:

"The low end on the 2.7m is around 25 knots, depending on your foil & weight, and the 2m is around 28 knots."

The low end change from 3.5. at 12 knots to 2.7m at 25 knots is a pretty big leap, they definitely seem sized to bridge your quiver there. I think if I pull the trigger I'd lean towards the 3.5m at the moment. I'm pushing pretty hard on smaller foils and boards and snatching up a tiny double skin might not be the right call.

I was honestly hoping the 2.7 would be my perfect sail and cover 20-40 knots. That would see use almost every day for me and then I could have something tiny in reserve for 40+

Brian,

I like them both, though I wish the Quest had the Ozone lines. I think the quests have the edge on range but only just, and a slightly better low end, but again not by much. I think the ozone are a touch more stable. I love the f one bar. The ozone are faster and turning is about the same. I also cant stop feeling that for my conditions I sold my power packs too soon.

But always looking for a new toy, if its an improvement. If I can get to a 3 PW quiver, where theres a big range overlap, good lines/stashing and upwind that eould be great.
