Slingwing V5 Design Difference

The Slingwing V5 is the ultimate wing for riders looking to take their skills to the next level. The V5 has increased control and effortless tacking, with a compact wingspan for on the water transitions or entering the Glide Zone. Taking what we learned about high tension wings from developing the Slingwing NXT, we were able to increase the balance, power, stability, and ease of use of the wing V5 in comparison to the Sling Wing V4. The Slinggrip Uni Handle is our new favorite way to hold the wing. Instead of two individual handles, the uni handle is one long handle that spans the entire wing. This means the rider can slide their hand back for more power, ride one handed, have more control and ease of use, and avoid the constant search for their handles when coming out of a tack or jibe. The Code 95 material is the strongest material we have put in a wing. It was strategically placed along the trailing edge to help prevent canopy blow out and help balance the Slingwing. V5. You will notice a more direct response in power and a wing that free flies effortlessly when gliding down as well. In the event your foil hits this material or the wing gets caught in the surf, the chances of a catastrophic failure are much lower. The true tension airframe delivers our new revolutionary high tension canopy, medium span wing design, a strategically calculated taper from the center of the leading edge wing to the wing tips. This revolutionary design enhances all elements of our flagship wing refinements and new materials, leading edge shape and our high tension canopy profile make the Sling Wing V5 more balanced and easier to fly. This wing excels across all performance metrics, no matter how or where you use it. https://slingshotsports.com/collections/wing-glide-zone/products/slingwing-v5
