The 6’2” Slingshot SST... the ideal crossover board for surfers.
SST
Overview
“The 6’2” Slingshot Squash Tail is the ideal crossover board for surfers who kite.”
Chief Designer Tony Logosz.
The SST, designed by John Doyle, is made for the advanced surfer who wants to
kitesurf. Because of its unique shape and size the SST provides excellent planeability, glide and drive in the waves.
The optimal way to enjoy this board is to use the kite to “tow” into a wave then
completely depower the kite and use your body and board to surf the wave and
carry you down the line. The broader shape of the tail area results in precision
stability and control.
The SST’s performance shines when ridden with or without straps. The SST is
comparable to a paddle board and can be ridden as a true surfboard. The 6’2” size
makes it the only board you need to carry on a kiteboarding/surfing trip.
The SST, high performance kitesurfing.

2008 Slingshot Lunacy... Get Mental !
Overview
Slingshot is proud to introduce its first ever “pro-model” board appropriately
named the Lunacy with reference to how insane Ruben Lenten rides!
After sampling the effect of Future Response Technology* used in the Slingshot
wakeboards, Ruben Lenten knew he needed to incorporate this feature into his
next kiteboard. To date, Chief Board Designer John Doyle and Ruben Lenten have
co-developed the ultimate kiteboard for hard core freestyle riding and competition
and the ONLY kiteboard equipped with FRT*.
The Lunacy is a super aggressive twin tip with a wide shape, sharp rail and loads
of tip power. What that all means is that it has more drive and has massive pop!
The NEW Slingshot Lunacy made for the likes of the most hard core freestyle
riders like Ruben Lenten. Leave your excuses at home!
