The wakeboarding industry is a highly specialized industry where any and every maker cannot enter in the hope of capturing the market. However, Slingshot is an exception to this norm as it has lots of experience in the world of kiteboarding. Hence, Slingshot wakeboards actually stand at an advantage as they are outsiders as far as wakeboard manufacturing is concerned and this will help them avoid stereotypes and come up with interesting and bold variations in design and technology.
This company was the first to offer wakeboards dedicated solely for cable or winch riding. How is cable riding or winch riding different from riding on the wake created by a motor boat? For starters, there is no wake involved in cable riding. You are pulled by an overhead cable instead of a rope attached to a motor boat. The fact that you are pulled by a rope with an upward slant makes it easier to pop off the surface and stay in the air for a longer duration. In such a scenario, using light wakeboards like Slingshot wakeboards will help you perform even more daring tricks on the move.
The 2009 Reflex Wakeboard has been designed specifically for the cable or winch rider. The primary feature of this wakeboard is the NEW Dura BaseTM and the bite-free slide of Park ReadyTM tune. This wakeboard has a 3 stage rocker designed to provide maximum upward lift of the wake. If you prefer cable riding over being towed by a motor boat, you should prefer Slingshot wakeboards. |
