Hover Glide Fkite V6

Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite V6

All-round hydrofoil from Slingshot

This Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite V6 is designed to teach as many riders as possible how to foil. The Hover Glide has been known for years as one of the most intuitive foils on the market, giving the rider the confidence to make maximum progress. The Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite delivers the perfect mix of performance and comfort, making the foil feel familiar quickly. Thanks to its evenly distributed stability, lift, and maneuverability, riders get the all-round performance that helps them make progress.

The wings of this Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite V6 are made of carbon and the fuselage and mast are made of forged aluminum, making the foil lightweight and providing a responsive ride thanks to its stiffness. The INFINITY front wing is 63cm from tip to tip and has a surface area of 1231cm2. The front wing provides a friendly character and delivers the perfect balance between speed, stability, lift, and maneuverability. The tips of the front wing are not sharp! Because the wingtips fold downwards, a smooth and soft tip edge is created that prevents injuries. In addition, the tips provide extra stability and a predictable ride. The rear wing provides extra stabilization. The rear wing is 42cm and provides the right amount of lift and speed.

The fuselage is adjustable thanks to a locking mechanism that allows for 2 positions of the front wing. The A position aligns the front wing perfectly with the mast. In the B position, the front wing is further forward relative to the mast, which shifts the lift center forward. Slingshot recommends the B position for all sports except windfoiling. The 72cm mast is perfect for beginners and even a large portion of advanced riders. The mast ensures that you don’t hover too high above the water, which creates a safe and familiar feeling. The fast mounting system of the Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite V6 has been made even lighter this year and offers the ability to place the foil further forward or backward.

The Slingshot Hover Glide Fkite V6 comes with a handy neoprene cover and travel case where you can transport the entire foil. The travel case is clean and fully padded and has padded and cushioned compartments for your wings, mast, fuselage, and all associated hardware. Combined with the neoprene covers, your foil is maximally protected for short and long foil trips.
