Get ready for better performance on the water with the Slingshot Ghost V3 Kite. This one-strut kite features completely new geometry that makes it easier to control and more fun to ride for all your water sports activities. The Ghost V3 represents years of development and testing, bringing together the best elements of modern kite design in one package that works for everyone from weekend riders to serious water sports athletes.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Single Strut Construction – Lighter weight design that’s easier to handle and provides better wind response. The simplified structure means less weight in the air and faster response to your control inputs, making every session more enjoyable.

• New Kite Geometry – Improved shape gives you better lift, smoother turns, and more control in the air. The redesigned profile creates better airflow over the canopy, resulting in more consistent power delivery and predictable handling characteristics.

• Multi-Sport Performance – Works great for kiteboarding, kitesurf sessions, surfboard riding, and efoil use. This versatile design adapts to different riding styles without compromising performance in any discipline.

• Durable Build Quality – Made with strong materials that handle regular use in salt water and sun. The reinforced construction points and quality fabrics ensure your investment lasts through many seasons of riding.

• Easy Control – Quick response and stable flight make it good for riders of all skill levels. The balanced design provides confidence for beginners while offering the performance advanced riders demand.

• Wide Wind Range – Performs well in different wind speeds so you can ride more often. The efficient design maintains power in light winds while remaining controllable in stronger conditions.

• Enhanced Stability – The one-strut design provides excellent stability in gusty conditions, reducing the chance of sudden power surges or drops that can catch riders off guard.

• Improved Relaunch – Water relaunch is easier thanks to the kite’s balanced design and responsive turning characteristics, getting you back on the water quickly after crashes.

Technical Specifications:

The Ghost V3 incorporates several technical improvements that set it apart from previous generations and competing kites. The canopy uses a three-strut equivalent profile in a single-strut package, providing the stability of traditional designs with the simplicity and weight savings of modern construction. The leading edge features optimized inflation pressure recommendations that balance performance with durability.

The bridle system has been completely redesigned to work with the new geometry, providing more direct connection between rider input and kite response. This results in more precise control during tricks, better wave riding performance, and improved safety characteristics during emergency situations.

Available Options:

The Ghost V3 Kite is available in different sizes to match your weight, local wind conditions, and riding style. Pick the right size for the best performance in your area. Smaller sizes work better for heavier riders or stronger wind conditions, while larger sizes provide more power for lighter riders or when the wind is less consistent.

Each size maintains the same flight characteristics, so you can switch between different sizes in your quiver without having to adjust your riding style. This consistency makes progression easier and gives you confidence when conditions change throughout your session.

How to Use:

1. Set Up – Place the kite on the beach with the front edge facing into the wind. Make sure the area is clear of obstacles and other riders. Check all connection points and inspect the kite for any damage before inflating.
2. Inflate – Use your pump to fill the leading edge to the right pressure. The recommended pressure is printed on the kite and varies by size. Proper inflation is important for performance and safety.
3. Connect Lines – Attach your control lines to the proper points on the kite. Double-check all connections and make sure lines are not twisted or tangled. Test the safety release system before launching.
4. Launch – Use safe launching methods, preferably with someone helping. Always launch from the edge of the wind window and be aware of other riders and obstacles downwind.
5. Ride – Use the control bar to steer and control the kite’s power. Start with gentle movements to get familiar with the kite’s response before attempting more aggressive maneuvers.
6. Pack Up – Land safely and secure the kite when you’re done. Rinse with fresh water if possible and dry completely before storing to extend the life of your equipment.

Great For:

• Kiteboarding Riders – Perfect for tricks, jumps, and wave riding. The responsive handling makes learning new moves easier while providing the performance needed for advanced maneuvers.
• Surfboard Enthusiasts – Excellent for surf-style kiteboarding sessions. The kite’s ability to park in the window and provide consistent power makes it ideal for wave riding and strapless surfboard use.
• Efoil Users – Provides smooth power for foiling and cruising. The gentle power delivery and wide wind range make it perfect for the precise control needed when riding efoils and hydrofoils.
• Kitesurf Adventures – Reliable performance for long sessions in various conditions. The durability and consistent performance make it a great choice for travel and extended use in different environments.
• Beginner to Advanced Riders – The forgiving characteristics help new riders progress safely while offering enough performance to keep advanced riders engaged and challenged.
