Slingshot Carbon Uni Handle

The Slingshot Carbon Uni Handle is the lighter, stiffer version of the boom fitted to the SlingWing range. Slingshot put it at 39% lighter than the aluminium Uni Handle V1, and you feel that straight away. Your wing will feel lighter and quicker to move around in your hands, easier to swing through a tack and less effort to hold flagged out on a long swell run. It clicks on in place of the standard boom with no tools, so it’s a five-minute tool free upgrade.

  • Carbon upgrade boom
  • 39% lighter than the aluminium Uni Handle V1
  • Fits SlingWing V5, V6, NXT and NXT V2
  • Two lengths: 800mm and 1010mm
  • Stiffer, more direct feel
  • Fits with ClickConnect, no tools

Worth Knowing:  Choose the 800mm boom for up to 4.5m wings and the 1010mm boom for wings of 5.0m and bigger.

Performance & Feel

A boom carries the wing’s whole load through one grip, so what it’s made of matters more than you’d think. Carbon stiffens the connection between your hands and the canopy: less flex when you sheet in hard, cleaner feedback when you’re pumping onto foil, and a wing that follows your hands without any lag. The weight saving shows up most when the wing isn’t powered. Flagged out, the boom’s weight is what tries to drop the wing, and a lighter boom means less to fight when you’re riding swell or in a light-wind lull.

Pick the length to match your wing: 800mm for wings of 4.5m and below, 1010mm for 5.0m and above. It fits every current SlingWing, so one boom can be used across your quiver.
