The Turbine delivers the ultimate light wind ride. When the wind is just too light for most kites you now have two size options to save your session. Introducing the all new 15 Meter Turbine, creating a new definition for performance riding in wind speeds as low as 5-6 knots. It's time to enjoy more days on the water with the Slingshot Turbine in both 17 and 15 meter sizes.

THE PERFECT COMBINATION

Like beer and a campfire some things are just meant to go together. The Glide, Also developed for light wind conditions is efficient with its longer and more narrow profile providing adequate surface area that gets you going in the lightest of winds.

The Ian Alldredge Signature Rawson has been created especially for Ian’s size (5’11”& 175lbs/79kg), style and local conditions. He’s a fast, powerful rider and his home conditions are typically on the heavy side with large waves and strong, gusty winds. (Of course Ian normally upsizes his kites to ensure he’s always lit up and can boost big airs.)

“This new 5'11 board is based on the last 3 ½ years of Ian’s feedback. Ian needs a skatey, fast bottom to help launch airs and edge while kiting. This board is totally suitable for normal surfing as well; the finished weight is around 7lbs (~3kg) not so heavy as to hinder the board's performance in high-performance surfing. Ian needs a strong board that will hold up well through everything he does. I am really proud of this board’s durability; it’s sufficient without making the finished product feel overly heavy.” – Pat Rawson.

SLINGSHOT RELEASES A WAVE SPECIFIC KITE. CALLED THE WAVE SST 2016

2016 KITE WAVE SST 6 / 8 / 10 / 12M

Slingshot is thrilled to introduce a radical new kite to its 2016 lineup – the Wave SST. With a design that will redefine the meaning of a true surf-specific kite, the Wave SST (Slingshot Surf Technology) features a Compact-C canopy and compact direct-connect bridal that looks like a cross between an RPM and a Rally, but performs unlike any kite on the market.

Built with significant and unrivaled upgrades to Slingshot’s already bombproof construction, the Wave SST (offered in 6, 8, 10 and 12 meter sizes) is sturdy enough to take a pounding in the surf, but light enough to track magically downwind, downloop on a dime and whip across the window at the flick of a wrist. For kiters serious about taking their wave skills to the next level, the Wave SST is the kite to take them there.

The Wave SST is equipped with a modified version of Slingshot’s revolutionary new shock-absorbing IRS bridal (featured on the 2015 RPM), which provides instant feedback and response, unrivaled stability and is condensed enough that it can’t get wrapped around wingtips if rolled in the surf.
