Fred Hope Slingshot Hydrofoil Tech Talk with Houston Kiteboarding

Subscribe to our channel here: / @midlerp
Fred Hope is the man on and off the water, but especially knows his way around hydrofoil gear. We had him at the Houston Kiteboard Club for our Windfest event and he gave everyone a tutorial on the Slingshot system and some of the reasons for design choices. He loves the 325 rear wing for this setup as a change maker and also an intermediary step for progression before switching front wings. Since this talk I have been riding the 325 and have to say it DOES make a huge difference in ride performance. We ride and sell all of the Slingshot gear and offer daily rentals at our beach location. If you have questions or need a custom quote please don't hesitate to call us at 281-508-6485 or email [e-mail]

Thanks for sharing this! I learned a lot at the live event but haven’t gotten on the water to try anything since. Great to be able to review it any time!
