Construction

The completely new Slingshot Code V1 is made of a new lighter weight dacron than what the Slingshot kites were previously made of. In combination with the new shape of the Code V1, this ensures great flying characteristics. In addition, the cloth is made of super strong and high-density 4×4 canopy cloth. It is therefore not surprising that the Slingshot kites are known for their super solid construction. The power lines are attached to pulleyless bridles so that you have a nice, direct feeling with the Code V1 and the kite has direct input of everything you want the Slingshot Code to do. Various mounting points have been made on the wingtips to adjust the Code V1 to your preferences in terms of steering angle and bar pressure. The Code V1 itself has a fairly light bar pressure and absorbs gusts easily, so you quickly feel familiar with the Slingshot Code V1.

The hybrid open-C canopy construction is the basis of the all-round properties of the Slingshot Code V1. The rounded wingtips make relaunching this kite very easy. The open design provides a large wind range and the bridles give the Code V1 the perfect angle of attack in all conditions.

Slingshot really amazed us with the versatility of the new Code V1. An ideal kite for the novice kitesurfer to the advanced kitesurfer who does not want to focus on one discipline. With a super solid construction and very smooth sailing characteristics, it won't be long before the Slingshot Code V1 is your favorite kite!
