The Ghost V3 from Slingshot is a modern single strut design kite featuring a brand new geometry. This new shape and profile, combined with a single strut, ushered in a new era of upwind reach, response, ease of handling and relaunch. Perfect for riders looking for a stress-free "Sheet and Go" session with good upwind, easy relaunch and performance that can adapt to any board or riding style. Twin tips, surfboards or foils. FrameLITE used throughout the Ghost V3's airframe, this high-tenacity polyester features a biaxial grid and broad emulsion coating, eliminating stretch in all directions to deliver superior response and handling in all conditions. The stiffness of the FrameLITE's unique woven structure significantly reduces cell stretch and increases multi-season durability. At 160 grams per square meter, FrameLITE offers an uncompromising balance of flexibility, strength, rigidity and weight. The all-new single luff strut separates the strut from the kite sail. This allows for a more natural, aerodynamic wing profile that reduces drag and creates faster turning speeds and better kite control. The 4X4 Canopy is the strongest, stiffest and most durable canopy material used in any kite. 4X4 Canopy Tech is a reinforced ripstop nylon with a 4X4 weave that offers unrivaled tear resistance, next-to-no stretch and season-after-season durability. With 25% thinner lines, the TrimFlight Bridle offers the least amount of drag, which significantly increases the Ghost's efficiency and response. More than just light weight, the geometry, length and placement of the bridle have been intelligently designed to expertly accentuate the light wind and drift performance characteristics of the Ghost's Compact Swept C shape. The Ghost V3's ingeniously designed Compact Swept C shape features a lower appearance, a compact arc that provides exceptional steering, rotation and drift; optimal characteristics for a single strut kite. The concave trailing edge and swept wing tips allow for long range and responsive power management for maximum control, response and ease of use in lighter conditions or when drifting is critical. The Ghost's One-Strut construction is a strategically combined design for maximum performance and accessibility. The single-strut design provides support and structure for effortless relaunch, while keeping the frame lightweight for advanced drift and handling in light winds. Fully customize the Ghost's performance with the Driver Customization System. RCS lets you fine-tune the Ghost's handling, power delivery and performance to align with your riding style and conditions. Using the RCS, a rider can incrementally shorten or lengthen the flight and power lines, easily adjusting the Ghost's turning speed, power level, attack angle and bar pressure.
