The Slingshot One-Lock Kite Front Wings are engineered for kitefoiling. They deliver early lift, precise control at high speeds, and predictable carving. Choose your size, from the super lively 755 to the more forgiving 1255. All feature the One-Lock attachment system for tool-free assembly and disassembly.
KEY INFORMATION
Slingshot One-Lock 2026 kitefoil front wing, 755, 855 or 1255
What we like
- Early lift: the wing takes off quickly without pitching up, so you get clean take-offs.
- High-speed control: a fast profile and stable roll mean the wing stays calm even when you accelerate.
- Predictable carving: turning response remains controlled, making transitions easier to lock in.
- Constant line tension: a contained glide profile prevents you from overflying your kite.
- One-Lock system: quick assembly and disassembly, with an interface calibrated for the Slingshot platform.
- Careful construction: durable composite, progressive fillets, and refined wingtips to limit ventilation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Designed for kite, not adapted from wing
Most front wings are designed for wing or Surf, then repurposed for Kite. These Slingshot Front Wings start from the opposite need: finding the perfect balance between lift, speed, and control behind a kite. The profile is fast, the roll is stable, and the glide is intentionally contained to maintain constant line tension. This means you won't outrun your kite in flight, which makes a huge difference in steering and transitions.
Three sizes, three programs
The 755 is the fastest and most agile, with an aspect ratio of 5.7 and only 0.78 kg: it is for experienced riders who seek speed and responsiveness. The 855 makes the deck between learning and advanced level, a good compromise for progressing without holding back. The 1255, with an aspect ratio of 4.1, offers excellent lift at low speed and a very forgiving stall: this is the size for first flights and light wind.
The One-Lock system
The One-Lock interface secures the front wing to the fuselage without traditional screws. Assembly takes just seconds, and disassembly is equally fast, simplifying transport and rinsing. The wing comes with a spare latch kit, a wear part that's always good to have on hand. The interface is calibrated for the Slingshot One-Lock platform, including masts, fuselages, and stabilizers from the same range.
Construction and finishes
These wings feature durable composite construction, progressive fillets between the wing and fuselage to limit turbulence, and refined wingtips that reduce ventilation in loaded turns. The surfaces are precisely finished, which directly impacts drag at kitefoil speeds. A protective bag is provided: make sure to use it, as a front wing with marks on the Leading Edge will lose performance.
SIZE GUIDE
| Size | Who it's for | Character |
|---|---|---|
| 755 | For experienced riders in strong wind | Fast, responsive, and highly agile |
| 855 | For riders progressing to an advanced level | The ideal balance of forgiveness and performance |
| 1255 | For first flights, light wind, and heavier riders | Low-speed lift, forgiving stall |
These are indicative recommendations. Your choice also depends on rider weight, the body of water, and the typical wind range of your spot.

FAQ
Which size should I choose to start kitefoiling?
Go with the 1255. Its 4.1 aspect ratio gives you plenty of low-speed lift and a very progressive stall, which helps forgive steering errors. You'll then move on to the 855, and if you're looking for speed, the 755.
What is the difference between the 755 and the 855?
The 755 is smaller, lighter (0.78 kg vs. 1.02 kg), and has a higher aspect ratio, making it faster and capable of tighter turns. Be aware that it demands more precision. The 855 remains forgiving while still offering great performance. It is the more allround choice of the two.
Why a specific Front Wing for kitefoiling?
In kitefoiling, traction is constant and speed is high. These Front Wings feature a fast profile and intentionally contained glide. This keeps your line tension permanent and prevents you from overrunning your kite, making the ride much more stable than with a repurposed wing foil Front Wing.
Which foil can it be mounted on?
It mounts on the Slingshot One-Lock platform: compatible with masts, fuselages, and stabilizers from the range. The One-Lock interface is proprietary; it cannot be mounted on a foil from another brand.
What is the included latch kit?
This is the part that locks the wing onto the fuselage. Slingshot provides a spare with each wing because it is a wear-and-tear part. Check its condition regularly and replace it as soon as it develops any play.
