Paulownia is known for its strong, springy characteristic, while Korroyd is a thermally-welded miniature honeycomb that provides superior strength at a fraction of the weight of a full-density core.

On the outside, the 2017 Slingshot Widowmaker features a full carbon wrap with additional carbon Vectran weave in critical stress areas. Additional top and base layers provide even more strength and durability.

Slingshot 2017 Widowmaker Features:

• Carbon-hybrid board packed with cutting-edge technology
  
• By far the lightest board on our lineup
  
• Stiff and fast, carves upwind like a dream
  
• Aggressive channeling increases grip and tracking
  
• All-around cruiser the connoisseur of fine rides
  

The 2017 Widowmaker features a progressive three-stage rocker and a distinctive bottom profile with aggressive NACA channeling at the tip and tail designed propel water across the board. These technical features add up to a fast, locked-in board with great upwind tracking, solid pop and a crazy-light feel you notice instantly.

Carbon Bedrock Inserts:
New for 2017, Slingshot is employing a carbon-reinforced Bedrock Insert mounting system, which reduces board weight while improving hold strength and overall flex characteristics. They use the industry-standard M6 hardware and are reinforced with light-weight, high-strength carbon fiber.

NACA channels:
Precision NACA Tech channels allow Slingshot to fine-tune each board in its lineup for specific performance characteristics. Channels improve water flow and board speed, grip and pop, edging and general performance and feel
