Efficient – control – power
The SLINGSHOT Javelin V1 boom wing delivers a stunning level of power and control with simple and secure push pin boom connectivity. Featuring an ultra-compact wingspan and on-the-fly power tuning using the canopy tensioning strap to flatten or expand the wings profile. Whether you are cruising one-handed with style, riding backwinded or trying to keep the wingtips out of the water, the advantage is clear.
Beginners and advanced riders alike will benefit from the increased control provided by the SLINGSHOT Javelin’s stiff, locked-in boom and ultra-compact wingspan. Whether you are cruising one-handed with style, riding backwinded or trying to keep the wingtips out of the water, the advantage of a boom is clear. The Javelin is also the first-ever wing with on-the-fly power tuning thanks to its Canopy Tensioning Strap that regulates the power by flattening or expanding the wing’s profile.
The two-piece Javelin boom** fits wing sizes from 2.5m to 7.5m and breaks down for travel with two simple push pins.
The SLINGSHOT Javelin is also offered with a windowless version.
