2015 Neil Pryde Ryde ..... RAF freeride rig
Got to try out the NP Ryde 6.5 the day I picked it up. Since there was a bit of a discussion about it on the magic ride thread I thought I would start a new one.
How does it go? As soon as I rigged it up I knew it had all the characteristics of a sweet sail. Nice curved belly down low and plenty of twist. It all sat very well. Mast NP 430 rdm.
On the water it was great, smooth and comfy. Super easy which is what I'm looking for in a freeride. Speed wise it was good again. I managed a 30kt 2 sec. None of the batterns were adjusted yet as I don't usually touch them until the sail stretches in.
I rode it using my 2014 Allride 106 in Caloundra which is pretty flat water. Great sail for a freeride. I could have been on a smaller sail easily by stuck with it to test the limits. It was great. So glad I bought two of them for blasting.
