2016 KITE
WAVE SST 6 / 8 / 10 / 12M SKU# 16140 Slingshot is thrilled to introduce a radical new kite to its 2016 lineup – the Wave SST. With a design that will redefine the meaning of a true surf-specific kite, the Wave SST (Slingshot Surf Technology) features a Compact-C canopy and compact directconnect bridal that looks like a cross between an RPM and a Rally, but performs unlike any kite on the market. Built with significant and unrivaled upgrades to Slingshot’s already bombproof construction, the Wave SST (offered in 6, 8, 10 and 12 meter sizes) is sturdy enough to take a pounding in the surf, but light enough to track magically downwind, downloop on a dime and whip across the window at the flick of a wrist. For kiters serious about taking their wave skills to the next level, the Wave SST is the kite to take them there. The Wave SST is equipped with a modified version of Slingshot’s revolutionary new shock-absorbing IRS bridal (featured on the 2015 RPM), which provides instant feedback and response, unrivaled stability and is condensed enough that it can’t get wrapped around wingtips if rolled in the surf. With a shape that favors serious downwind drift, unbelievable turning speed even when fully sheeted-out and a feather-light feel when shredding down the line, slashing faces and bottom-turning, the Wave SST has set a new standard for what a wave kite can do for its riders. Slingshot coined the term “Surf Tough” nearly 15 years ago with its unique seam technology, and its designers have taken that concept to another level with the Wave SST. The kite is constructed with an extra heavy duty Rip Stop Surf Grid canopy material and has extra panels reinforced in a gridded quilt pattern to provide increased strength in the event of a water landing. These upgrades compliment Slingshot’s already rock-solid construction that makes our kites the most resilient on the market. Although built specifically for surf, the Wave SST is also an outstanding kite for easy-going strapless riders and the rapidlygrowing faction of foil boarders due to its incredible depower, feather-light feel and unrivaled turning characteristics. For customized performance, the kite features three trailing edge attachment points which result in more or less bar pressure and sensitivity depending on which point is chosen. All of Slingshot’s 2016 kites come with our new One Pump Speed System, which increases inflation efficiency to get you out on the water faster and with less energy than before.

RALLY
5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 14M SKU# 16130
Touted as the most versatile and user-friendly kite in Slingshot’s lineup, the Rally has continued its dramatic rise to the top since introduced to the market in 2011. Available in sizes 5-12 and 14 so kiters can build their perfect quiver, the 2016 Rally incorporates an open Delta-C profile, a direct-connect pulley-less bridal system, beefed-up surf-tough seams, fine-tuning attachment points and a number of other unique feathers to make this the ultimate all-around weapon of choice for kiters across the spectrum. Never before has one kite appealed to so many different styles of riding. Updates to the 2016 Rally include relocated attachment points and a slight change in geometry, which increase handling and steering speed, reduce bar pressure and bring back a feel similar to the popular 2012 version. These updates compliment the Rally’s unrivaled wind range, low-end power, hang time, upwind performance and, bombproof construction that has kept Slingshot at the leading edge of the industry for the last 15 years. All of Slingshot’s 2016 kites come with our new One Pump Speed System*, which increases inflation efficiency to get you out on the water faster and with less energy than before.

Slingshot has refined the Fuel’s legendary construction and traditional-C design over the years, making this the go-to kite for riders looking for aggressive grunt, unhooked authority, power, boost and insane looping capabilities. In 2016 we’ve continued with the well-received detachable four-point Nitrous bridal system introduced last year. This new addition, along three customization settings - Mega Loop, Freestyle and Freeride - gives riders increased flexibility and freedom in how the kite performs. When installed (the bridal comes factory installed but can be easily removed), the Nitrous system delivers explosive pop, massive hangtime and, most notably, increased range and depower. All of Slingshot’s 2016 kites come with our new One Pump Speed System, which increases inflation efficiency to get you out on the water faster and with less energy than before.

RPM
6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 14M SKU# 16120
The legend continues with the 2016 RPM: The renowned all-around weapon of choice for world champion tricksters, soul-searching surfers and casual weekendwarriors alike. Returning as the flagship kite on Slingshot’s legendary lineup, the 2016 RPM is loaded with exciting and innovative features that will again place this kite at the top of the food chain and uphold its reputation as one of the most versatile and rock solid kites ever produced. Last year Slingshot introduced the Intuitive Response System (IRS) Bridle – an industry-first innovation that replaced bridle pulleys with a low-profile bungee setup that improved steering speed, response and general high-end performance. Feedback on the IRS Bridle was immediate and overwhelmingly positive. The 2016 RPM comes equipped with the same system, which gives riders a more fluid connection to the kite and gives the kite improved stability and smoother, more reactive performance. In addition to the industry-leading IRS bridle, the 2016 RPM features upgrades to its already bombproof construction, including a tougher, more durable diamond leech trailing edge and a new DP 175 Dacron leading edge and strut material. These upgrades complement Slingshot’s proprietary tri-tech protection, making this one of the toughest, most durable kites on the market. Also returning to the 2016 RPM is an upgraded One Pump Speed System, which increases inflation efficiency to get you out on the water faster and with less energy than before PACKAGE INCLUDES: Kite, Kite Backpack, Bladder Repair Kit, Quick-Start Guide, IRS Bungee Replacement, Pump

Back by popular demand for 2016, the Turbine is offered in two sizes- 15 and 17 meter- to give riders the freedom and flexibility to fine tune their light-wind weapon of choice. The 15 meter is designed for lighter or more efficient riders, surfboard riders, foilers and slightly stronger winds, while the 17 meter has the ultimate low-end range and a bit more power. PACKAGE INCLUDES: Kite, Kite Backpack, Bladder Repair Kit, Quick-Start Guide, IRS Bungee Replacement, Pump Hose with One Pump Speed Valve Adapter.

ANGRY SWALLOW 5’2” SKU# 16218052 5’4” SKU# 16218054 5’6” SKU# 16218056 With a stubby, truncated nose, wide midsection and three-fin swallow tail, the 2016 Angry Swallow’s anarchic design breaks the mold of modern kite surfboards. Based on Slingshot’s T-Rex hybrid model, the Angry Swallow offers riders an unparalleled mix of stability and allcondition wave performance with a snappy, responsive and freestylefriendly feel that only a board of its size and shape can provide. New this year, the 2016 Angry Swallow - offered in 5’2”, 5’4” and 5’6” lengths - has a narrower midsection, redesigned tail and drawn-back stomp pad and insert; these changes allow for tighter, snappier turning and a more aggressive stance for riders, with or without footstraps. Although an excellent all-around board, the Angry Swallow shines in marginal wave conditions, when more traditional boards tend to struggle. With the performance of a larger board in a small package, the T-Rex design is also an excellent choice for travel. Back by popular demand for all of Slingshot’s 2016 surfboards is the three-fin setup incorporating the innovative new FCSII keyless fin system that enables riders to insert and remove fins with ease, and without the need for tools. The Angry Swallow also comes with a set of Slingshot’s quick-adjust surf straps. LENGTH

SCREAMER 5’2” SKU# 16217052 5’4” SKU# 16217054 5’6” SKU# 16217056 Unorthodox by design and radical by performance, the 2016 Screamer appeals to the new-era of kiters who want both solid wave performance and progressive freestyle capabilities out of the same surfboard. The board’s unique shape is based on Slingshot’s T-Rex design, the most notable feature of which is a wide, snub-nose. Offered in 5’2”, 5’4” and, new to 2016, 5’6” lengths, the Screamer’s stubby shape significantly reduces front-end weight, thus making strapless airs, spins and flip tricks easier than with more traditional shapes. Meanwhile, the board’s parallel rail outline, “pulled-in” thumb tail and single-concave rocker make it a fast, stable and slashy choice for all-around wave riding. New this year, the stomp pad and tail inserts have been moved back over the fins to allow riders a more aggressive stance and attack, whether riding strapless strapped-in. A 5’6” length was also added to the lineup, providing an excellent option for lower wind, smaller swell or larger riders. Back by popular demand for all of Slingshot’s 2016 surfboards is the three-fin setup incorporating the innovative new FCSII keyless fin system that enables riders to insert and remove fins with ease, and without the need for tools.

The result is an aggressive yet stable board that appeals to riders of all levels, tackling all types of conditions. New to the 2016 Celeritas, the stomp pad and tail inserts have been moved back over the fins to allow riders a more aggressive stance and attack, whether riding strapless strapped-in.

TYRANT 6’0”
SKU# 16219060 Building on the its reputation as the go-to surfboard for riders demanding solid performance in a variety of wind and wave conditions, the 2016 Tyrant is again one of the best all-around surfboards on the market. While maintaining its classic short board shape and a rocker designed for high-performance down-the-line riding, Slingshot’s legendary design team has modified the board’s tail end, changing it from a thumb tail to a rounded squash tail and repositioning the stomp pad and inserts farther back over the fins. The 2016 model is also slightly narrower than last year. These changes allow for an aggressive, lip-slashing style while maintaining the stability and hold that has made the Tyrant an ideal classic shortboard choice for riders of all levels. Back by popular demand for all of Slingshot’s 2016 surfboards is the three-fin setup, incorporating the innovative new FCSII keyless fin system that enables riders to insert and remove fins with ease, and without the need for tools. The Tyrant also comes with a set of Slingshot’s quick-adjust surf straps. LENGTH

GLIDE 149cm SKU# 16224149 159cm SKU# 16224159 Redefining the way a dedicated light wind board should feel and perform, the Glide has consistently gotten people out on the water having fun when lesser boards would fall short. Developed not only for getting up and riding in light winds, the Glide performs more like a standard twin tip than a barn door once you’re out on the water. Its design features a long, narrow line, block rail profile and mild rocker. These features combine to give the rider significantly better edge control, power management, load and pop and maneuverability than standard light-wind boards that are generally shorter and wider. In fleeting wind, mellow thermals or calm azure lagoons, the 2016 Glide can make the difference between frolicking in the wind or watching it from shore.
