What You Need To Know About the SlingWing V3 Hard Handle
“The elevated pistol grip front handle on the V3 Hard Handel wing is really a game changer. I find myself holding the pistol grip instead of the leading edge handle when riding swell and waves. Not only is is easier to get to, but holding the pistol grip allows me to regulate power in the wing while luffing, and keep the trailing edge up so it doesn’t get in my way while I am flying downwind on swell.”

Description
We designed the SlingWing V3 to give you significantly more power per size. Using a smaller wing in the same wind provides the advantages of higher speed and increased control with less weight and drag. The larger strut and leading-edge diameter provide a completely rigid frame for big airs with tons of hang time. A tight canopy cancels oscillation and flutter to increases luffing performance. The One Pump Speed System makes inflation quick and simple, while the added dump valve on the strut makes deflation and packing a breeze. The profile entry batten provides smooth aerodynamic shaping where the inflatable leading edge transitions to the wing canopy for efficient air flow across the wing. Light and tough 4x4 Canopy Tech material, combined with our Skate Scuff tough strips on the wingtips and leading edge, provide increased durability for wherever you ride, land or sea. Like its predecessor, the V3 features harness-line attachment points that allow you to use a harness for higher speeds, better tack angles, and longer sessions.
WHY WE MADE IT
Gear selection in wing involves a ton of personal preference and with the addition of a hard-handle version of our ever-popular SlingWing V3 the choice between soft and hard handles is in your hands.
