Re: Would you go kite in this?

Yes, but on 238cm speed skis on fast ice or snow to hit over 70mph and maybe even 80+.

On water? Probably not. I tried in the aftermath of a hurricane in 40 with gusts to 60 and its just odd.

Re: difference in Front wing for a Liftfoil

Any combo will work, but some are just better with others. A 48 tail is perfect for the 250. Both are geared towards slower more stable riding. The 38 tail is a little faster, but try the 200 with the 48 and see what you think. Do you have a source for the 200 front? I have some in stock if needed....

Re: difference in Front wing for a LIFTFOIL.

The 200/38 tail is probably the most versatile of all the wings (for most). How much do you weigh? The 200 will be just more fun overall for you compared to the 250. A little faster, turns better and still easy to get up on the foil. I'm about 215 lbs and have been using the 200/38 for all my lesson...

Re: Slingshot UFO V2 when released?

Is just me that find these structuless kites too expensive for what they are or my price point is a little bit off? According to Slingshot's website: UFO v1.1. 3m $1027 USD (0-struct) Ghost v1 4m $1099 USD (1-struct) SST v6 4m $1333 USD (3-struct) Machine v1 5m $1401 USD (5-struct) Maybe it's too n...

Re: Drift launch - running out lines

Below is a very detailed video of drift launching and a couple of things to keep in mind. 1) Know EXACTLY how to manage your lines. Know exactly what your lines are doing at all times to keep them from wrapping around another line or your bar. Hooking into the bar? I personally never do this and see...

Re: Will my slingshot hover glide flight school setup fit other boards?

I have been using the 4’6 dwarfcraft for winging in strong winds but I bet there are other SS boards way better to consider buying used because of the higher volume. Alien air and prone foiling boards like High Roller must be great after dialing in the sinked start. Have anyone used them for wingin...

Re: Will my slingshot hover glide flight school setup fit other boards?

Hey Beebad...as mentioned, the tracks are most all boards are standard so the SS will fit most any board. There's a fair amount to consider for boards and wings. If you are 170lbs, you should look at something in the 100L to 120L range. The recommend about 20-40L over your weight in KG. You're 77KG...
