Rocker: Aggressive Nose Rocker – Prevents nose dives without sacrificing board speed, allowing aggressive style surfers to carve hard without the worry of burying the nose. Fast Rocker Line – The key to success when surfing small waves and being able to let go of the rope behind the boat.
-
Base: Double Concave Hull – The double concave hull helps create traction without sacrificing speed, and also helps the board rock effortlessly from rail to rail. Center Spine – Helps in the transition from toe to heel edge when rocking and rolling on the wave.
-
Rails/Edges: Dual Cupped Rail Channels – Located on the toe and heel rails of the boards, these channels give the board additional “bite” when digging into the face of the wave. They feel almost like a small cheater fin on the edge that helps keep you on the sweet spot of the wave and prevents slip-outs.

Our Slingshot Mothership is great for wakesurfing with longboard style.

The added surface area of the MOTHERSHIP makes dropping deep into the back of the wave a breeze, giving you more space to express yourself in classic longboard fashion! If you’ve never surfed a single fin, prepare for a whole new outlook on the beauty of surfing’s simplest maneuvers.
Let the challenge to hang 5 begin! The Mothership makes the simple things more enjoyable and automatically grants you additional style points. Kick back, relax, and enjoy your smoothest turns to date!

-
MILD NOSE ROCKER: Just enough to keep you from pearling (nose diving) but not enough to slow down the board speed. The happy medium.
