What are these vanes recommended for as far as bow style?

Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

 

I am currently using them out of my compound. I don't see any reason they would not work on an Olympic style recurve also.
I just wouldn't shoot them off the shelf of a bow.

 

Very interesting design

 

I agree ill have to check them out and see what the Pro's and Cons are

 

Interesting design

K&K Archery has designed an innovative new vane that is great for indoor archery competition.
The KSL JET6 SHARK is a tape on, 4" vane that has a slightly curved profile and the proprietary JET6 air channels for better arrow flight control.
The way these vanes are placed on the arrow shaft creates a smaller fletched diameter while still maintaining a vane surface area equal to a standard 4"vane.

Get more clearance with large diameter arrows and still get great arrow flight.

Here is a picture of the actual vanes on a 23 size arrow.

 

Why tape on

Why tape on instead of glue on. And is there a speed limit with the tape on version

 

cool design. Wonder how they fly

 

I have had great luck with them on 23 size arrows and I have friends who have shot personal bests with them on 27 size arrows. Flight is impressive.

 

OK Absolute 44

 

If this is a question ..... the answer is Yes. The Absolute 44 from OK Archery is a very stable , comfortable shooting bow for people with longer draw lengths. Awesome indoor bow.

 

Cool looking vane

 

Like the look, may try them

 

If you decide to try them, BA Legend Archery has them in stock.

 

Interesting design

 

Hmmm let us know how they do on 27 shafts.

 

Actually ... they work great on 27s !

 

Very nice design

 

not gonna lie, look really cool.

 

[QUOTE=cncpro;1109764581I like the looks of them
Here is a

 

Very interesting design. Is there any science behind it?

 

Science behind JET6 vanes



The KSL JET6 vanes are all designed with 2 air channels at the base of the vanes to create an air flow that swirls around behind the arrow rather that fanning out from the arrow.
This helps the arrow stabilize faster. They also have a slight curve to the vane ( top to bottom ) to create a little more spin.

This picture should give you and idea of what the design is intended to do.

 

Interesting design

 

Any idea on rate of twist in comparison to other vanes , or helical etc.

 

KSL Shark - Rate of Twist



I'm not sure how I would quantify that !?
Compared to other vanes, it will depend on the angle and helical the other vanes are applied with.
The one thing I would say is with the built in curve and angle on the Sharks, I think you get a little more early spin for faster correction.
I will say that I used to primarily shoot feathers indoors for the little extra correction on large arrows and I feel these give very similar correction to a feather.

 

Anyone else using these? I would like to here more reviews. Very interesting vane.

 

whats the science behind the wave design? or is it pure aesthetic

 

Interesting looking vane....

 

was expecting something like Eli sharks before I clicked, wonder how these will fly.

 

Any comparative testing done? Looks really interesting

 

Testing



What kind of testing would you consider useful ?
I haven't seen too many comparisons that are very scientific.
Unfortunately, I don't have a shooting machine to eliminate the human error in any test other than a speed test.

 

Has anyone put them on Nano sized shafts?

 

Sharks on Nanos



Some archers on the Korean national team are currently shooting them on X10s.

The women on the Korean National team just took 1st and 2nd place in the recurve division at the GT Open in Luxembourg this weekend using KSL JET6 vanes.
Watch for more World Cup wins in he months to come !!
