Description

Light wind enthusiasts can now challenge marginal conditions in the search for the ultimate soul searching freeride session with the Slingshot Glide.

The Glide’s narrow width and longer effective water line ensures adequate surface area that will get you going in the lightest of winds. The narrow outline provides the rider more control over the edge This precision control allows the rider to better manage the power of their kite, creating more apparent wind and results in more speed on the water.

The Glide gets going first, hauls up wind, and is the highest performance board available in the lightwind category. When the wind drops, keep your kite in the air and simply pick up a Glide. It is so versatile and fun to ride you’ll be grinning and ripping as others are packing up to head home. A true session saver.

Advantages such as responsiveness, stability and consistency makes the Slingshot Glide the perfect upwind lightwind board. The Glide is the ideal compliment to any quiver. The simplicity of this board means less kites and more time on the water.

Nothing beats this board in marginal or light wind conditions. If you are in the search for the ultimate soul searching freeride session, your search is over. The Slingshot Glide is your answer!

Technology

Single Concave Hull:

This time-tested bottom contour provides friendly tracking and great upwind performance. Ideal for beginners to advanced riders looking for a predictable and versatile ride.

Atomic Wood Core:

Sustainably grown Paulownia gives the lively, springy character that Slingshot boards are famous for. Vertically laminated construction harnesses the collective strength of the wood’s grain and provides strength, durability and consistent flex over the life of the board.

Carbon Bedrock Inserts:

The new inserts are a Slingshot exclusive and are designed to offer you a solid connection to a board that still needs to flex. Slingshot use the industry-standard M6 hardware and are reinforced with light-weight, high-strength carbon fibre. With this development, Slingshot's engineers were able to define a new level of performance and durability in twin tip construction. The insert pull strength is increased by 30%, while the overall board weight is cut by 10%.

Single Shot Fusion Sidewalls:

High durometer urethane and our innovative manufacturing process literally infuses the rail into the board’s core in a single shot, producing unrivalled dampening and durability.
