Regular price £879.00Available now
Who It's For:
The SlingWing V4 is the ultimate choice for riders looking for a wing to help them take their skills to the next level. Riders seeking increased control and effortless tacking with a compact wingspan for on-the-water transition or spinning on jumps. The upward lift on the nose handle provides enhanced drifting capabilities while flagging out while swell riding.
Package Includes:
SlingWing V4, Carry Backpack, Patch Kit, SlingGrip-Click Connect Handles
Balance, power, stability, and ease of use are the hallmark traits of the SlingWing V4's all-new high-tension canopy design. This revolutionary design enhances all elements of our flagship wing. Refinements in new materials, leading-edge design, and our high-tension canopy profile make theSlingWing V4 more balanced and easier to fly. This wing excels across all performance metrics no matter how or where you use it. Exclusive to Slingshot, it features the new SlingGrip EVA with a Click Connect handle system. The elevated pistol grip front handle delivers greater control when luffing or switching hands. These handles come on and off with a click, which makes packing for travel more compact. Soft or carbon handles can be purchased separately.
True Tension
A strategically calculated taper from the center of the LE wing to the wing tips, the True Tension Airframe delivers our new revolutionary high tension canopy medium span wing design. Offering superior balance and handing with best-in- class flex characteristics. Stiff in the front and transitioning to softer at the wing tips, the TrueTaper Airframe keeps the first third of the canopy structure smooth rigid for on-demand power while allowing wing tip twist off in gusty conditions or flag out and surf with total control.
FRAMELITE CONSTRUCTION
Utilized throughout the SlingWing V4’s airframe, this high-tenacity polyester features biaxial gridding and extensive emulsion coating, eliminating stretch in all directions while providing a more balanced feel, better power control, and stable, effortless luffing while surfing. The stiffness of FrameLite’s unique 2x2 weave structure significantly reduces elongation of the airframe and increases multi- season durability. At 160 grams per square meter, FrameLite uncompromisingly offers the optimum balance of flex, strength, stiffness, and weight.
RIGID H-GRID CANOPY CONSTRUCTION
The SlingWing V4 utilizes our new H-Grid Rigid canopy construction. We doubled our horizontal canopy paneling count by implementing a strategic seaming pattern that enables our new high-tension canopy profile. These reinforced seams and a strategic gridded canopy prevent the canopy stretch. It also eliminates catastrophic blowouts or rips in the event your foil goes through your wing or goes through the wringer in the surf.VERSASTRUT
With its hybrid canted strut design, VersaStrut works in conjunction with HGrid Rigid Canopy Construction to control our high-tension canopy profile. It allows for less in-fill wall connection in the mid-section and direct strut-to-canopy connection toward the trailing edge. The canted forward section of the strut moves the wing further from the rider, which creates significant dampening and takes any slack out of rider input. Connecting the strut directly to the rear of the canopy yields a more direct and rapid response when pumping and distributes loads uniformly into the canopy.
SLINGGRIP ALUMINUM HANDLES
The reduced 27-millimeter diameter with dual-patterned EVA and ergonomically optimized pentagonal circumference of the SlingGrip Aluminum handles provides all-day comfort and better roll control by matching the exact shapeof your grip, plus we added a little extra side wall for fingers to torque against when needed. A pistol-grip front handle allows riders to confidently luff the wing and ride swell without needing to move their hand to the leading-edge webbing handle. The angled pistol-grip gives you the ability to regulate power in the wing while luffing and keep the trailing edge up.
CLICKCONNECT
The easiest and quickest handle connection available on any wing, the ClickConnect requires no tools to mount your handles. Simply slide the handle into the connection point on the strut until it clicks. Superiorly engineered, the ClickConnect mounts are sewn around the strut to distribute load and avoid pinch points.Size Chart
PTM 899/710 Lower Package V1
1240470899
Regular price £1,099.99Who Is It For: You tack, glide, and pump on a swell. You're becoming one with your foil. Now you want to out-glide your friends while making tighter turns than they thought possible. Your goal is "Total Mastery," with elegance and efficiency being the mindset you incorporate into your riding.
Package Includes:
PTM 899 Front Wing, PS 360 V-Tail Stabilizer, 710mm Fuse, travel case, neoprene wing covers
The PTM 899 achieves maximum glide range through a new profile design, a slightly lower "high aspect" ratio, and a balanced anhedral/wing tip twist. Eventually, gliding becomes second nature. Gaining high-end speed and glide shouldn't impact your low end. Your new goal becomes optimizing efficiency by maximizing the speed range of your foil while being flagged out. We refer to this as the "glide zone". This wing destroys the legacy"surface area" comparison method. This smaller wing will blow away any larger wing for those stuck on that old measuring method. In other words, you can get more lift, speed, glide, and turning from a wing smaller than you think. This is the wing.
