VERSA FIN CONFIGURATION
Allows for countless fin configurations. Single fin, twin fin, thruster (3 fin) and

ERGONOMIC CARRY HANDLE
Designed with plenty of room to naturally fit the curve of your fingers, the
flush mount carry handle makes it easy and comfortable to carry the board.
VENT PLUG
Manually open and close vent plug to allow your board to ‘breathe’, equalizing
internal and external pressure from heat and atmospheric pressure changes.
DOUBLE LEASH PLUG
Added safety and security in the surf.
The all new G-Whiz is a compact design that tracks well on flat water and
makes small waves a playground. The compact design provides solid stability, easy wave entry, and enjoyable flat water paddling between sets. The
board is flat under foot then progresses to an aggressive “V” spine. The
flatness under foot allows the board to track straight but the “V” spine
allows you to carve rail to rail when you want to.
Based on Slingshot’s Future Response Technology the G-Whiz is built
with Wood Veneer Sandwich Construction (WVS). This proprietary
construction controls the durability and flex of the board and the
result is a proven lightweight, impact resistant board.
