Bullet 4.5 for air?

Hi there,

Been kitelandboarding for best part of a year now (although quite rarely and am still quite crap) Getting a bit frustrated by the handling of my 3/4m firebees and after something a little more stable. Thinking about a 4.5m bullet, but everywhere says bullet gives very little vertical lift. I know that the blade is much better for this, but I don't think I'm very bothered.

Vertical lift isn't a major consideration for me, but I wouldn't mind messing about with jumping a little as I get more confident. Is this completely out of the question with a bullet? I weigh around 13 stone and ride a kheo air-s.

thanks in advance

Hey!

Was out flying a 2.5 bullet today... Serious fun.. The wind speed was at around 25mph,

It lifted me off the ground on more than 1 occasion :wow:

Absolutely busted now though

:frog: <-- I love this little guy
