Slingshot Fuse Kite

Slingshot Fuse Kite

The Fuse is Slingshot’s all-new wave kite, designed from the ground up to redefine wave performance. Tested and approved by wave legend Ben Wilson in the perfect surf of Namotu, Fiji, the Fuse delivers unmatched drift, superior upwind ability, and effortless depower. Whether carving the face off a Oregon Coast Peeler or cruising a downwinder in La Ventana, Baja, the Fuse excels in every condition, offering the smoothest ride and the ultimate control.

The Fuse ushers in the modern era of wave kites with a design focused on ultimate drift and stability. A newly engineered leading edge sits further inside the kite, allowing it to open up and better align with the wind for exceptional drift performance. The addition of DLE 135 along the trailing edge minimizes canopy stretch for consistent, long-term performance. With its outstanding depower and improved upwind ability, the Fuse ensures you stay on the wave without getting pulled off, giving riders the confidence to push their limits.

Features

• High-Pressure Inflation - In 2025 Slingshot moved to a high-pressure valve, originally designed for the military to inflate their boats quickly, with the ability to deflate just as quickly. The system takes half as much effort to inflate and deflate now.
• DLE 140 Trailing Edge - Reinforces the canopy along the trailing edge to reduce stretch and maintain optimal performance over time.
• Deep Drift Bridle - The Deep Drift Bridle is a 4-point system strategically positioned further inside the leading edge. This optimized placement enhances drift and stability keeping the kite floating precisely where you need it while you focus on carving down the line.
• FrameLite - Utilized throughout the Fuse V1 airframe this high-tenacity polyester features biaxial gridding and extensive emulsion coating, eliminating stretch in all directions to deliver superior response and handling in all conditions. 
• 4x4 Canopy Tech - The strongest, stiffest and most durable canopy material used in any kite. 4x4 Canopy Tech is reinforced ripstop nylon with a 4x4 weave that delivers unrivaled tear resistance, near-zero stretch, and season-after-season durability.
• Compact Wing Tip - The Compact Wing Tip Design enhances turning speed, responsiveness, and control, making the kite feel more reactive in the waves. This refined shape improves drift and reduces wingtip drag, allowing for smoother power delivery and effortless down-the-line riding.
