New for 2017, Slingshot is introducing by far the most advanced flex technology in the industry. Based around our renowned vertically laminated wood core, all new tapered flex tips allow for a stiffer belly, bringing the flex farther out towards the tip and tail for a whole new press experience only available from Slingshot.
Slingshot has completely revamped its mounting systems for 2017. Our new Carbon Bedrock Inserts are the strongest and lightest mounting system in Slingshot history and utilize the industry-standard M6 hardware. Reinforced by patches of carbon fiber, the new four-pack inserts are ridiculously strong, but remain flexible, which allows for an uninterrupted flex pattern. When paired with 2017 Slingshot Bindings, they allow for 12 unique and symmetrical stance widths ranging from 19.5-25.25 inches (on center).
