2014 Slingshot Glide Kiteboard
Comes complete with straps and pads
The Slingshot Glide is the ultimate lightwind twintip. Its long, flat shape make riding in the lightest wind easy. Noticably longer and more narrow, the 2014 Glide places your heels closer to the edge for more control. Pair this with a Slingshot Turbine, Cabrinha Contra, or Best TS 17m for unsurpassed performance in as low as 10 mph. A favorite of beginners as well as big riders, the Glide is not your typical barn door style lightwind kiteboard. It is packed with features such as Resin-x, fast track mounting, block rail profile, atomic wood core, and Slingshot's made in the USA construction & support. Try one out and never look back.

What Slingshot has to say about the 2014 Glide
While other companies focus on building width into their boards as the solution for light wind riding, the Glide's counterintuitive concept focuses on efficient power through a lean and mean profile.
The Glide's narrow width and longer effective water line ensures adequate surface area that will get you going in the lightest of winds. The narrow outline provides the rider more control over the edge. This precision control allows the rider to better manage the power of their kite, creating more apparent wind and results in more speed on the water. The Glide gets going first, hauls up wind, and is the highest performance board available in the lightwind category. When the wind drops, keep your kite in the air and simply pick up a Glide. It's so versatile and fun to ride you'll be grinning and ripping as others are packing up to head home. A true session saver.
The new 150 for 2014 is the little brother size. This board is ideal for lighter riders or riders wanting similar Glide performance with less swing weight in the tips.
