Their right! Super light even with the bindings and just like my Lib Tech; it has just the right amount of swing weight.

I picked one up the other day, and the thin-ness scared me. I didn't get to ride it tho, the boots were too small. Looked sick, they need to get their distro figured out in the midwest!

It will get better but the best way to get more product out in the Midwest is ask your dealer to represent Slingshot. I know for sure The House and Midwest Master Craft are dealers in the some of that area.

I'm the Midwest Rep and have been working on getting more cable parks and pro shops our gear. So the future does looks bright!

The slingshot boards are as light as a feather. The first time I spun on one it blew me away at how it feels as if there is nothing on your feet. They do weigh much less!!!

Chris, I have yet to meet you but have been working with Jeff and Mira to help out the midwest scene.

Drop me a line over at www.midwestwakeboarder.com

I ride both the recoil and the response, couldn't figure out which one I like more!

Chris, can you talk to KC watersports in Kansas about carrying the slingshot gear? I'm really interested in it, but we have no where to demo it out here I dont think.
