why is the slingshot website so poor on information and unclear about their twintip boards.

why they can not be a litle bit more specific like this nobile website

That nobile diagram is also one of the most confusing pieces of graphic design I've seen in a while

Would have to agree looks like some chinese puzzel gone wrong, makes no sense to me.

I'd like to see manufactuers also state the weights of their boards on their websites

Thanks for the feedback! For 2013 we will have better board spec info.. Not as confusing as the attached diagram.. It will have flex ratings, weights, basic board measurements, and core layer breakdown. More info on the new track and hardware will be added for 2013 too. If you would like to see anything, please chime in and I'll request your comments?!

I know the website is about 4 years old.. Progress is being made to update the site

I'd like to see another Lunacy

MADE IN USA by craftsmen.

A couple of reviews with some more info

+1
Reason I ride them for kite and wake.

+2
Because they're made in a brand new purpose built facility rather than some warmed over ex snowboard works in East Transylvania..
Built with resin so green you could wash your hands in it, from Trees in managed forests no further than 50 miles away from the factory, which uses energy from a hydroelectric power source right outside the door, with a secret process that bonds urethane to the rails like no other company in the world, by riders who design the boards and have been in the business since the beginning and not some recent bandwagonneer..

Ride one, you'll soon see why they don't perhaps have to big up the marketing bollox and they're also putting jobs back in the USA which is not a bad thing...

I've seen the factory, wood goes in one end and boards come out the other, they do everything on site, even printing the graphics and it is a hand process by skilled laminators...

Even made me this Jubilee special whilst I waited... the new Asylum with a Brit flag on it, one day they might even ship it to me..
