FEATURES/BENEFITS DOUBLE CONCAVE PLANNING HULL Breakthrough hull design that allows for independent foot stability and increased speed, control and stroke efficiency. HATCHET NOSE Cuts and moves water clean to the sides for minimal drag and increased speed. SHED DECK The deck literally sheds water that may come over the nose, providing dry, open and efficient area that holds feet for buoy turns and drop backs. ‘V’ TUNNEL BOTTOM SHAPE Minimizes friction by reducing contact with the water to essential hull surfaces producing less resistance and more speed. Releases the tail increasing the rocker at the rail line allowing for easier turns. SQUARE TAIL Provides surface and planing area to maintain speed and lift. Allows for more pivotal turns. FULL COCKPIT LENGTH EVA PAD Comfortable, high density traction material with uniform support. VENT PLUG Manually open and close vent plug to allow your board to ‘breath’, equalizing internal and external pressure from heat and atmospheric pressure changes. 4 TIE-DOWN PLUGS Allows for securing person items on the board.

SKU# 136414 / 136412 The Nitro is the ultimate combination of speed and stability. Over the past 3 years countless hours have been spent refining the nose design into a ‘hatchet nose‘ that literally pierces the water to minimize drag and maximize glide. Couple that with an innovative double concave planning hull that optimizes stability and control, the result is pure speed. The Carbon Epoxy Sandwich construction is strong and lightweight.
Based on Slingshot’s Future Response Technology the Nitro is built with Carbon Wood Veneer Sandwich Construction (CWVS). This proprietary construction controls the durability, flex and overall strength of the board without adding extra weight. The result is a proven lightweight, impact resistant board.
