2023 Slingshot Converter XR V5 5’0″

Built with the shape and construction of our popular Sci-Fly XR surfboard, the Converter XR V5 carries on the same high-performance characteristics. The flatter rocker and parallel rail outline deliver top-of-the-line efficiencies both on and off foil. This allows riders to hold down a better edge without a foil and also gives you the speed you need to get on foil. The winged-diamond tail shape provides added grip and pop for strapless freestyle tricks and it also provides added leverage when pushing off the water to get yourself on foil. The Converter XR V5 features our XR construction, which gives the rider the feel and performance of a traditional surfboard in a lightweight package.  

 

WHY WE MADE IT

We built the Converter XR V5 to be the ultimate all-in-one board for kitesurfing and foiling. We wanted to design one board that sacrificed as little as possible whether you are using it for foiling or for kitesurfing.
