DESCRIPTION FROM SLINGSHOT

Slingshot UFO V4 2027

The UFO V4 is the latest evolution of Slingshot's zero-strut, foil-specific kite — a kite built to drift, disappear overhead, and stay exactly where you need it. Refined from the proven UFO V3, the V4 adds a thinner leading edge, lighter bar pressure, and more stable toeside riding, making it a lighter, cleaner-handling tool for kite foiling across a wide range of conditions.

Key Features

• Zero-Strut Design: No struts means less weight and cleaner aerodynamics, giving the UFO its signature lightweight feel and outstanding low-end performance.
• Thinner Leading Edge: A slimmer leading edge reduces weight and delivers a more refined, precise steering feel.
• Light Bar Pressure: Reduced bar pressure keeps you comfortable and in control through long foil sessions.
• Exceptional Drift: The UFO holds its position in the window when you're riding downwind or carving swell, so you can focus on the foil, not the kite.
• Improved Toeside Stability: Better stability while riding toeside and downwind for more confident, efficient sessions.
• Higher Aspect Ratio in Larger Sizes: The bigger sizes get a higher aspect ratio for more efficient light-wind performance.
