The Slingshot Fuel's legacy for innovation, durability and unrivaled high performance are what make the Fuel the freestyle expert weapon of choice.
For 2012, the Slingshot FUEL reintroduces Splitstrut Technology. The 2012 FUEL is built on a 5-strut platform, making the kite incredibly rigid and stable in even the toughest conditions. Slingshot have also incorporated a new trailing edge construction for extra protection to decrease wear.
The combination of this dedication, design and technology create a kite with unmatched deliberate power, fearless looping and unwavering recovery — making the FUEL the C kite expert rider’s weapon of choice.
The 2012 Slingshot Fuel is the most unrivaled C-kite ever! It derives all of its performance from the truest form of C-kite DNA. Characteristics such as unmatched deliberate power, fearless looping and unwavering recovery make the Fuel the C-kite expert riders weapon of choice.
Leading the charge is Freestyle Global Team Rider, Ruben Lenten as a calculated part of the design and development process of the Fuel.
Innovative features such as Onepump (original Slingshot patented single point inflation system), Custom Fuel Injection (fine tune for wake or freestyle), unique FUEL canopy (consistent grunt and power through the stroke) and Slingshot’s legendary construction position the Fuel as the pinnacle of all C kites.
