Continuous Rocker:
Smooth, consistent curve provides a fast ride, predictable pop, great carving performance and disperses water to soften landings.
Vertically laminated wood core:
Sustainably grown Paulownia gives the lively, springy character that Slingshot boards are famous for. Vertically laminated construction harnesses the collective strength of the wood’s grain and provides strength, durability and consistent flex over the life of the board.
Dura Light Base:
This 0.2mm base material is the ideal strength to weight ratio. Lightweight performance in a strong and durable package.
Naca Channels:
Precision laser cut parabolic channels direct water like a vacuum from the middle of the board through the tail. This directed water accelerates through the channel and increases the board speed and grip to the water. This provides the rider with better board speed and traction when riding.
Carbon Bedrock Inserts:
Light, flexible and durable inserts that maintain the board’s flex underfoot for a consistent feel from tip to tail.
Urethane Sidewalls:
Transferring the same technology found in high durometer urethane skateboard wheels into the rail of all our boards. Our innovative manufacturing process literally infuses the rail into the board cores in one single shot, producing unrivaled dampening and durability.
Construction:
Slingshot twin tips are hand crafted out of all wood cores. We use sustainably grown Paulownia, which gives the lively, springy character that Slingshot boards are famous for. The vertically laminated construction harnesses the collect strength of the wood’s grain and provides strength, durability and consistent flex over the life of the board.
As an added layer of protection, we finish every board with a full urethane rail to protect from inevitable mishaps and impacts with hard objects. We’ve added vibrant urethan colors give the visual pop distinct to Slingshot.
