THE DESIGN DIFFERENCE
The SlingWing V6 features several significant innovations designed to enhance performance and rider experience. The new segmented strut construction creates a more refined and responsive wing. A decreased wingtip angle of attack enhances the lock-and-go feel while foiling up wind and the Code95 panel layout helps reduce bagging out over time. With no tuck during tacks and optimized fiberglass battens, the V6 is the ultimate wing for stability, control, and progression.
DESCRIPTION
The SlingWing V6 is the next evolution in our wing foil lineup, offering unmatched lift and improved free-fly capabilities. Ideal for riders seeking a wing that balances lightweight construction with superior performance, the V6 sits at the heart of our range as the ultimate all-around wing.Whether you’re gliding effortlessly or executing technical transitions, the V6 enhances every moment on the water
Who’s It For
For riders who value a lightweight design, improved free-fly performance while on swell and a wing with the ability to generate lift effortlessly during transitions.
Technology
High Tension Canopy Design
A strategically calculated taper from the center of the LE wing to the wingtips, the True Tension Airframe delivers our revolutionary high-tension canopy medium span wing design. Optimized weave orientation along the LE panels offering superior balance and handling and provide best-in-class characteristics even in the gustiest conditions.
Code 95 P Trailing Edge Design
Code 95 P material is the strongest canopy material we have put in a wing. Itwas strategically placed along the trailing edge to prevent canopy blowout andhelp balance the SlingWing V6. You will notice a more direct response in powerand a wing that free-flies effortlessly when gliding down a swell. In the eventthat your foil hits this material, or the wing gets caught in the surf, you have amuch lower chance of catastrophic failure.
Exclusive UniHandle Compatibility
The SlingWing V6 exclusively fits the UniHandle system, providing a streamlinedand ergonomic grip for precision control.
FrameLITE Construction
Utilized throughout the SlingWing V6’s Airframe, this high-tenacity polyester features biaxial gridding and extensive emulsion coating, eliminating stretch in all directions while providing a more balanced feel, better power control, and stable, effortless luffing while surfing. The stiffness of FrameLITE’s unique 2×2 weave structure significantly reduces elongation of the airframe and increases multi-season durability. At 160 grams per square meter, FrameLITE uncompromisingly offers the optimum balance of flex, strength, stiffness, and weight.
New Panel Layout
Optimized for efficiency and durability, the updated panel layout ensures a tighter canopy for increased responsiveness with less drag. The radial panels along the trailing edge, made from the dimensionally stable Code 55P, control the air out flow and extend the life of the wing, while optimized canopy orientations throughout the wing ensure ideal load transfer and a snappy, responsive feel.
Segmented Strut Design
This design allows for a higher fidelity optimized aerodynamic profile, ensuring the wing performs as intended. By maintaining precise contours, the segmented strut contributes to smoother transitions, increased lift, and enhanced overall responsiveness.
Larger Forward Windows
Increased visibility for a safer and more confident ride.
TPU Rigid LE Handle
Our TPU Rigid LE Handle was designed to give you, the rider the most control over their wing by increasing leverage. When free-flying, enjoying swell, and through downwind transitions, the increased roll-axis control allows you to keep the wing stable at all times.
Decreased Wingtip Angle of Attack
Enhances lock-and-go stability and free-fly performance.
Reduced Dihedral Leading Edge
This gives you more surface area directly angled against the wind and self-balances the wing when in free fly for less oscillation in the roll.
4X4 Canopy Tech
The strongest, stiffest, and most durable canopy material used in any wing. 4X4Canopy Tech is reinforced ripstop nylon with a 4×4 weave that delivers unrivaled tear resistance, near-zero stretch, and season-after-season durability.
ClickConnect
The easiest and quickest handle connection available on any wing. TheClickConnect is a tool free way to mount your handle on your wing. Simply slide the handle into the connection point on the strut until it clicks
