SURF

We surf in increasingly diverse conditions. Today you see kiteboarders riding everything from perfect Tahitian waves to swells on the river. It is with this in mind that for 2009 we are offering 4 different style boards each custom tailored so any rider can find their perfect ride.

The SRT and SST now offer a quad fin configuration. We are also pleased to announce two Ben Wilson pro model boards. These are Benʼs favorite boards and come with a traditional tri fin configuration.

2009 SRT

Proven world wide, the SRT 5’11” Quad excels in small waves and river swell alike. New for 2009, as part of the Crossover Collection, the SRT has a round tail and quad fins. The bottom of the SRT has a flat entry rocker, increased tail kick and a slight single concave in front. The outline is a “no nose” which means that the wide point of the board is pulled back ,matched with low round rails and a tail that is then pulled into a tight round thumb. Light and lively defines the 2009 SRT Quad!

Benefits:
The SRT Quad is for lighter smaller riders or aggressive riders who want a fast forgiving board that makes tight turns in the pocket and the feeling of a quick speed burst. Kiteboarders coming off twin tips will find the learning curve adjusting to quad style surfboards easy.

2009 SST


The SST from the Crossover Collection is designed to be the most versatile surf board we make.

The SST is excellent for lighter winds or bigger riders who want good upwind ability.

The SST Quad has a dome deck and deep single concave running the full length of the board. Its boxy rails in the tail and low round soft forward rail allow the SST Quad to be driven extremely hard in the turns. The SST Quad shape also has a wider nose with a wider tail that provides a large surface area to drive the quad fins. The advantages of the SST make this board the most versatile board we make.

Benefits:
The SST Quad is the perfect all round board with the most amount of versatility. It’s
ideal if you if you are looking for a one surfboard quiver to ride every kind of wave.

2009 BEN WILSON PRO
This years most exciting addition to the Crossover Collection is the Ben Wilson Pro Model surfboard. It’s a high performance short board designed to compliment Ben’s aggressive aerial style.

The BW Pro Model has a slightly dome deck with a single concave bottom that zero’s out at the tail. This allows riders to control their speed strapped or strapless .

The BW Pro Model board is set up specifically with a classic tri fin configuration which allows for precision turns in the pocket. “Once I get a magic shape I can’t let go of it. I am freaking out on how good this board is from 3’ to 8’ waves. I can create massive amounts of speed and still draw insane lines in all conditions.”- Slingshot Global Team Rider Ben Wilson.

This is Ben’s bread and butter daily driver anywhere in the world. It’s the one board that always gets packed.

Benefits:
The Ben Wilson Pro Model Quad is for riders who want to surf exactly what the pro’s ride. It’s for riders who appreciate a board that draws a line in any situation, speed or condition.

2009 CELERITAS

Looking for some speed in your surf riding? Look no further than Slingshot’s most fun addition to the Crossover Collection, the Celeritas. This board is faster than fast!

The Celeritas is a short “trunk” style board, with exaggerated concave and curvy tail lines. It also features a fast center rocker that blends from the center to the tail giving this board off the charts speed while maintaing perfect control.

The Celeritas is so versatile it is a blast to ride in small mushy surf but also holds it own in good medium surf. The Celeritas was born out of a fun tri fin board shaped for Ben. It has such innovative qualities, adds to his riding and best of all...he even paddles this board too!
