Description
The Whip was built for the tech heads of wakeboarding. The design process started with a laser and a German, and became an unbelievably exciting shape to ride. The amount of traction this board delivers while appearing relatively flat on the bottom will surely come as a surprise. It’s the perfect choice for riders who love that locked in feeling on the water. A board they can trust while they’re railing around a corner getting ready to take flight, or if someone just needs a bit more security on their landings while trying something new.
One of the most difficult feats in wakeboard design is achieving an ideal balance between traction and speed; one is often sacrificed to achieve the other. The Whip, however, has both, thanks to Slingshot’s signature NACA Tech Channels. These precision laser-cut channels increase the board’s traction on edge without sacrificing glide speed. With the Whip, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: speed and freedom on rails, with reliable traction when edging. The Whip has a medium flex pattern which gives it a strong pop off the wake and plenty of snap off the water for big ollies.
