Slingshot surfboards

Postby SpaceRacer » Wed Jun 15, 2016 3:41 pm

Like most kite companies' websites, it is impossible to decipher the differences between their surfboards. Which board would you recommend for strapless river swell riding, bump and jump and under head high coast swell?

I am happy with the Celeritas but if you are looking into garbing the board find a board that has channels on the rail area like skater from Naish or similar

A 4th vote for the Celeritas! I have one too. It has a flat tail with lots of concave, so it's good upwind. The round tail makes it nice and responsive. Once it gets over head high it stops being quite so much fun.
