Slingshot SlingWing V3 HH Green 6.5 Mtr Wing
SLINGSHOT SLINGWING V3
The Slingshot SlingWing V3 is a light weight inflatable wing that has a rigid frame when pumped up and can be packed in a small bag when deflated. No harness, control bar, lines, mast, boom or battens needed. It’s designed to be used with a foil or paddle board with enough volume for the rider to stand on and can also be used with snow sports or skating.
Description
BALANCED / RIGID / PULL
We designed the all-new Slingwing V3 to give you significantly more power per size. Using a smaller wing in the same wind provides the advantages of higher speed and increased control with less weight and drag.
The larger strut and leading-edge diameter provide a completely rigid frame for big airs with tons of hang time. A tight canopy cancels oscillation and flutter to increases luffing performance. The V3’s new elongated handle system allows riders to perfectly place their grip for maximum responsiveness.
The One Pump Speed System makes inflation quick and simple, while the added dump valve on the strut makes deflation and packing a breeze. The profile entry batten provides smooth aerodynamic shaping where the inflatable leading edge transitions to the wing canopy for efficient air flow across the wing.
Light and tough 4x4 Canopy Tech material, combined with our Skate Scuff tough strips on the wingtips and leading edge, provide increased durability for wherever you ride, land or sea. Like its predecessor, the V3 features harness-line attachment pigtails that allow you to use a harness for higher speeds, better tack angles and longer sessions.

SLINGSHOT CONSTRUCTION:
20+ years building the most durable gear on the market. The SlingWing is built to the same standards with many of the same innovations we use in our top-of-the-line kites.
NEW ELOGNATED HANDLES:
Slide to perfectly place your grip without releasing a hand.
LEADING EDGE LUFF HANDLE:
Soft neoprene underlining lets you enjoy hours of gliding, free from knuckle rub.
ONE PUMP SPEED SYSTEM AND STRUT DUMP VALVE:
Inflate and deflate quickly and efficiently.
HARNESS LINE ATTACHMENT PIGTAILS:
Quickly connect or disconnect your harness line for higher speed, better tack angles, and less muscle fatigue.
INCREASED LEADING EDGE AND STRUT DIAMETER:
Provides a stiffer and more powerful ride.
REFLEX INFLATABLE TRAILING EDGE DESIGN:
The SlingWing’s unique design features an inflatable trailing edge that completes a rigid frame around the entire wing (not just the leading edge like other designs). This makes a big difference in performance, wind and load tolerance and gives it “pitch positive” flight. The frame keeps it from flapping, fluttering and folding in the wind the way less robust designs are prone to.
POWER GRIP Y HANDLE LAYOUT:
Multiple grip points in a Y shape along the leading edge and center strut gives you the freedom to position your hands in the ideal position no matter how you manouvre. This unique design also gives you better leverage over the wing to manipulate its angle of attack with greater precision and less strain.
WIDE BOY MONO STRUT:
The SlingWing’s centre strut is large and in charge, and for good reason. The wide strut profile allows the power grip handles more leverage over the center axis of the wing, which translates to an easier and more efficient control in your hands.
SKATE SCUFF TOUGH STRIPS:
An attention to detail that will dramatically increase durability for anyone looking to use the SlingWing as a crossover toy for skating or on the snow. Scuff strips are located on the wingtips where they are vulnerable to damage from dragging on rough surfaces.
HIGH PRESSURE VALVES:
For maximum air pressure in the Reflex Trailing Edge.
30 PIECE CONSTANT CURVE LEADING EDGE:
Segmented leading edge sewn in multiple sections to create the perfect shape and taper while maintaining stiffness throughout the wing.
LEADING EDGE SURF HANDLES:
Grippy grab handles are located strategically on the leading edge to give the rider more options, more range of movement and more leverage over the wing to accommodate different conditions and uses.
SPLIT STRUT:
Integration of the canopy and centre strut for maximum structure and performance.
WRIST SAFETY LEASH:
The SlingWing comes with a wrist leash for safety that attaches to the centre of the leading edge.
SLINGWING BACK PACK:
For easy storage.
