Slingshot Foil Compatible With North Board?

Postby SENDIT! » Sun Oct 24, 2021 6:10 pm

Anyone know if the Slingshot Foil setup will bolt up to a North Wingfoil board (or really any North Foil board, I guess)?

Thanks,

It should mostly work just fine as manufacturers use the same width between bolts. That said where you could encounter issues is with fore and aft setup as some foils have longer fuselages than others and the c of g difference cannot be accommodated by sliding the foil forwards or back enough in the track. If you ride strapless, though it's not really an issue. Perhaps someone with more experience with this board and foil setup can comment on the specifics. I wouldn't hesitate to give it a go.
