Slingshot Alien Air 4'8 2019 Kite Foil Board
IN A NUTSHELL...
The Slingshot Alien Air foil board is a proven all-around shape for versatile freeride performance. The board’s wide profile makes it stable and user-friendly, while a moderate concave creates agile turning as you put your weight out toward the edges. Two key features of the Alien Air are its thick profile and scooped nose. These combine for easy starts, slow takeoff speeds and the ability to touch down, bounce off the water and continue riding rather than nose diving and crashing.
