IN A NUTSHELL...
The Slingshot Hover Glide FSurf/SUP Foil is designed to deliver surfers an advanced wave riding experience. This is accomplished with an early takeoff and gliding speed designed to match the speed of (small-to-medium) waves. This design eliminates the need for excessive pumping, and will show in your smooth foiling style.

The aluminum design is affordable but more importantly, it increases stability and eliminates the “twitchy” behavior that full-carbon foils typically exhibit. With the Slingshot FSurf/SUP Foil, you can ride rolling swell on the outside, catch whitewater on the inside, or when you’re ready, paddle into breaking waves like you would with a regular surf or SUP board.

SURF/SUP FOIL FEATURES
FLAT-LOC™ FUSE-TO-WING CONNECTOR
Foiling is the real deal. Think about your board and your weight standing on it. Now let’s pull some G forces on this set up. Carving, jibbing, turning, crashing and jumping puts enormous forces on the fuselage-to-wing connection. Our Flat-Loc™ Fuse-to-Wing connection is designed like a wrench on a nut. The load is married to the fuse and the wings, with no load on the bolts. Unlike bolt-on wings, the Flat-Loc™ system is safe, secure and smart.
SWITCH FUSE(PATENT PENDING)
Find your personal comfort zone. The ability to adjust the wing position fore or aft in relationship to your stance is critical for balancing your rig, stance and overall sailing position. Slingshot’s Switch Fuse is an ingenious design that allows the foil to be configured in two different positions to accommodate varying board setups, rider preferences and skill levels.
