saw some for sale and was wondering if anybody has any comments on them for boarding? Much air for somebody 180 pounds?

From what I've been reading Bullets are made NOT to Lift.. More of a pulling kite.Probably Pulls like a Train.... The Blade is the one that Lifts .. Its a Monster !

bullet 7 meter kicks ass for pulling on the buggy, but its a reduced lift kite , although you can get some lift out of it on an atb board. not as much as you would with a blade style kite......

180pounds 7 meters you should get lift......

I just got a 7 meter, wow they dont lie. I weigh 245 lbs and I got several very exhilerating scuds in a 5 mph wind. I'll be honest with you the power is not understandable until you take one out for the first time. I am going to try a snow board next it just snowed in Kansas.

I'm happy with both my 4.5 and 7. They are a bit more user friendly than some kites I've tried. The bridle sets the lines a little closer to center. Handy for a quick downloop or power loops. You will find it pulls strong but predictably. I find it better as a very low wind foil than my 10m phsyco. Especially for the buggy. You won't regret buying one. Just start off in low winds.

Dont EVEN belive that hype! I have a 7 meter and have been lofted scary high many times. But you can belive that its not a floaty kite. Been dropped on my ass many times. Took it out on thanksgiving day in 35 mph gust with my mountain board and was going so fast i had speed wobbles.And i had my trucks way tight. I was trying to fly it static and got popped higher than the bleachers at my local high school. And they are 18 feet high. I was very lucky i got let down gently. i now have much respect for it. The height was not the scary part but the acceleration. It violently snapped my head back. Not good considering i had a cervical fusion 3 years ago. Now im thinking about buying a collar like the nascar guys wear.I dont know if it matters or not but i do weigh 145 pounds.Dont think that matters in 35 mph gust though.

Well, ya see, any kite will get lifty when way the heck outside it's wind range, I'm 250lbs and a 3m kite works amazing in 35mph. So does my 2.5m race kite. I'd be thankful to be alive more than I'd be hard on the kite.

I've flown both Snowbirds bullets, they make solid, stable predictable buggy engines.

I took mine out in a light breeze and it kept pulling. I flew for three hours. It kept luffing at the edges of the window, but as long as you keep it moving it will not stop.
