LIGHTWIND | EFFICIENCY | PROGRESSION
When designing the Glide, we set out to create the easiest twin tip
in the world to ride. That meant more size and a larger foundation
for riders to learn on. Now in it’s 11th iteration, The Glide’s reputation
stands strong as one of the best beginner and light wind twin tips
on the market. Last year we introduced the Trapezoidal tip and tail,
which increased the effective edge of the board in the water without
increasing the overall size and cumbersome nature of a longer board.
This also increased the upwind ability of the board for beginners and
light wind warriors a like.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE THE GLIDE
+ The Glide will be the first and last twin tip to get upwind on a light wind day.
+ One of the most proven light wind twin tip shapes of all time
+ Easy to hold power in case the wind picks up, making it one of the most versa-
tile “big boards” on the market.
Package includes:
Glide board. , NEW kite fins 4 x 1.75” (1.9x15.2cm),
NEW grab handle

1. Trapezoidal Tip & Tail:
We introduced the Trapezoidal tip and tail shape last year. It extends your
effective board area in the water and also acts a rudder or an additional
center fin. The extended length gives you more range and this shape also
provides more tracking for upwind performance.
2. Atomic Wood Core:
Sustainably grown Paulownia gives the lively,
springy character that Slingshot boards are famous for. Vertically
laminated construction harnesses the collective strength of the wood’s
grain and provides strength, durability and consistent flex over the life of
the board.
3. Carbon Bedrock Inserts:
Light, flexible and durable inserts that
maintain the board’s flex underfoot for a consistent feel f rom tip to tail.
4. Single Concave Hull:
Provides smooth tracking and effortless upwind
performance.
5. Singleshot Fusion Sidewall:
We’ve transferred the same technology
found in high durometer urethane skateboard wheels into the rail of all
our boards. Our innovative manufacturing process literally infuses the rail
into the board cores in one single shot, producing unrivaled dampening
and durability.
6. Dura-Light Base:
This .2mm base material is the ideal strength to
weight ratio. Lightweight performance in a strong and durable package.
