ONE-LOCK KITE 755 FRONT WING

FAST / MANEUVERABLE / PLAYFUL

The One-Lock Kite 755 front wing was designed in collaboration with Fred Hope. It is fast, responsive, and incredibly agile, allowing for quicker direction changes than any other wing on the market. This wing excels in both high-end speed and maneuverability, ensuring that no compromises are needed between the two. Its high-speed profile enables effortless direction changes, whether cruising at 15 or 30 mph. The twist in the wingtip also ensures that body position and foot pressure do not need to change when accelerating or decelerating.

Who is it for?

The One-Lock Kite 755 Front Wing by Slingshot is designed for riders aspiring to perform at Fred Hope's level. With its higher top-end speed, improved maneuverability, and immediate responsiveness, this wing allows riders to fully integrate with their foil. Although it may not suit everyone, those who master the 755 will find other front wings to feel slow in comparison.

ONE-LOCK KITE 855 FRONT WING

SMOOTH / MANEUVERABLE / PLAYFUL

The One-Lock Kite 855 front wing was designed to bridge the gap between the 755 and the 1255. It offers low-end stability similar to the 1255 while incorporating the high-end speed of the 755, creating a versatile option that many riders will never outgrow. Precision-tuned wingtips with a downward twist ensure consistent lift at any speed, so riders don’t need to adjust their weight placement when accelerating or decelerating.

Who is it for?

The One-Lock Kite 855 Front Wing by Slingshot is designed for riders who have outgrown their beginner or intermediate kitefoil setup. With its higher top-end speed, improved maneuverability, and immediate responsiveness, this wing allows riders to fine-tune their foil and explore a wider range of speeds.

ONE-LOCK KITE 1255 FRONT WING

STABLE / PREDICTABLE / RELIABLE

The One-Lock Kite 1255 front wing by Slingshot is a redesigned version of the globally renowned 633, now offering improved water flow efficiency without sacrificing stability. As the easiest-to-use option in the One-Lock system, the 1255 delivers excellent low-end performance and a forgiving stall point. Its forward maximum thickness and medium camber profile, combined with the Center Focused Lift concept, ensure that lift stays under your feet, preventing unwanted rollovers and helping maintain control.

Who is it for?

The One-Lock Kite 1255 Front Wing by Slingshot is for riders looking for an entry-level kitefoil that will take them through turning, foot swaps, pumping, and tacks. Designed to grow with the rider, the 1255 in the One-Lock series gives riders the confidence to improve their riding without losing stability and control.

Features

One-Lock™ Latch

The front wings by Slingshot come with a pre-installed One-Lock™ latch to secure the front and rear wings inside the mast’s bottom collar. Each wing includes an additional replacement One-Lock™ latch.

Fillets

Slingshot's wings incorporate fillets to increase overall strength. These fillets also help minimize drag, resulting in more efficient performance.

Stiff Slingshot Construction

The wings are built with a blend of high and medium modulus carbon, creating a stiff, high-performance wing. Carbon layers are strategically positioned at 0° along the span to maximize stiffness and at 45° to prevent wing twist. An internal stringer has also been incorporated to further enhance stiffness.

Monobloc Front Wing

The front part of the fuselage section is now molded into the front wing using a Carbon Arc Layup, reducing drag and creating a stronger connection for increased responsiveness. The fuselage section's construction is consistent across the One-Lock line, ensuring reliable control and performance while enhancing direct feedback from the front wing.

Hand-Finished

All Slingshot front wings are hand-finished to precisely tune the water flow off the trailing edge and tips. This meticulous process results in a more efficient foil and a smoother ride on the water.

Forgiving Medium Camber Profile

The One-Lock Kite 1255 Front Wing features a forgiving medium camber profile with maximum thickness and camber positioned forward. This design results in a very low stall speed, making the wing more forgiving and easier to ride.

High-Speed Profile

The One-Lock Kite 755 features a high-speed profile that keeps the front wing loose in the water. Whether at high or low speeds, the 755 responds quickly and avoids the lockout effect common in other front wings.

Medium-High-Speed Profile

The One-Lock Kite 855 features a medium-high-speed profile that keeps the front wing loose in the water. Whether at high or low speeds, the 855 responds quickly and avoids the lockout effect often seen in other front wings.

THIS IS ONE-LOCK™

REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY / FASTER THAN EVER

The future of hydrofoiling

One-Lock™ is a revolutionary technology that will transform the hydrofoil market. Leveraging Slingshot’s experience bringing foils to the mass market with Hover Glide, they started from scratch to revolutionize how hydrofoils are used.

Until now, all hydrofoils were held together with screws. The new screwless system, One-Lock™, eliminates 100% of the resistance caused by screws.

With the screwless design, you can assemble or disassemble your foil in less than 10 seconds while enjoying the smoothest riding experience ever felt on a foil.

Discover One-Lock™

Do you have 10 seconds to spare? You’ve never seen a foil assembled like this. Slingshot’s design and testing team spent three years developing the most optimized system they could imagine, reducing it to just three components: the stabilizer, the front wing, and the mast.

This simplified design eliminates the need for tools, prevents corrosion and screw loss, avoids stripped heads, and saves time.

On the water, these solutions offer even more advantages: reduced drag, weight reduction, and more precise foil positioning, all thanks to the absence of screws.

At Slingshot, the mission is to innovate. Innovation is not just about launching something new. Innovation means solving a customer problem. With One-Lock™, more than one problem has been solved.
