Description
2023 Slingshot Native Wakeboard
The Native has proven to be a team favorite for both cable-exclusive and boat-exclusive riders since its debut in 2020. This true crossover king is a reincarnation of two legacy models from years past—the Recoil and Response—with upgrades like the Elliptical Concave and subtle Flex Tips to meet the needs of the new-age rider. It's fast and free on the water and features a medium flex pattern that's rigid enough for explosive pop on the boat without sacrificing its playfulness in the park. This deck is undoubtedly your one-stop shop for every type of riding—built for the rider that can't be bound to just one discipline.
WHY WE MADE IT
We created the Native out of popular demand for a simplified crossover model that pays homage to Slingshot's flagship models: the Recoil and Response. The Native is a perfect blend of both—with upgrades to meet the demands of todays riders.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
- The Native is the result of nearly 15 years of rider input—it's everything they've loved and nothing else.
- A guaranteed good time regardless of where your riding takes you.
ATOMIC WOOD CORE
Vertically laminated wood core construction is what gives Slingshot boards their signature flex performance. It's lightweight and durable, delivering superior pop, rebound, and that overall magical feeling in the park.
SINGLE-SHOT FUSION SIDEWALLS
Our innovative manufacturing process produces unrivaled dampening and durability by infusing the rail into the core of the board with a single shot, eliminating the need for fasteners or staples.
CARBON BEDROCK INSERTS
Light, flexible, and super strong, our Carbon Bedrock Inserts reduce overall board weight, increase pull strength and allow for a more consistent flex under foot.
BALLISTIC BASE
With .7mm's of bulletproof protection between your board and the surfaces you're sliding across, this base layer is ready for battle. Put to the test daily by some of the most daring park riders in the game.
CONTINUOUS ROCKER PROFILE
This continuous curve equates to faster board speed on the water, allowing you to ride for longer periods of time with less arm fatigue and delivering an exciting, fast, and fun feel.
SIGNATURE FLEX TIPS
Designed to make nose and tail presses more exhilarating, Flex Tips move the flex point out from the belly of the board and more into the tips for a whole new feel on rails.
ELLIPTICAL CONCAVE
This unique curvature in the tips and tails creates more excitement when flowing from rail-to-rail on the water, and also helps riders hold on to nose and tail presses as the tips literally wrap around rounded sliding surfaces.
2023 Slingshot Space Mob Wakeboard Bindings
The Space Mob boot is the clear choice for any core cable wakeboarder. This boot is an evolution of our original two-piece boot system with removable liners that was introduced more than a decade ago. Fast forward to today and the Space Mob boot liners are the most popular forms of footwear at almost every wakepark in the world. The soft boot shells feature a removable tongue that allows riders to customize stiffness and combines with our signature Gummy Strap closure system for one of the most comfortable and supportive situations your feet have ever experienced.
WHY WE MADE IT
We made the Space Mob boot to be the top-performing cable boot in all categories. Looks, feels, and more—all are on-point, and the Space Mob Crew is backing these kicks 110%. Consider the Space Mob our "Unicorn" of cable wake boots.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
- Wearing the Space Mob boot liners to the park is like wearing a VIP backstage pass at your favorite concert.
- High performance and comfort are guaranteed and that feeling of being "in the club" is an added bonus.
K9 MOUNTING SYSTEM
A Slingshot exclusive, the K9 Mounting System solidifies your boot-to-board connection while minimizing the boots' overall footprint on the board and allowing for more stance widths and angles than any other boots on the market.
BOTTOMLESS BASE SYSTEM
Our Bottomless Base System maximizes riders feel and connectivity with their board and the water. Boot liner soles are in direct contact with the boards' surface, allowing for a more immediate transfer of energy.
GUMMY STRAP CLOSURE SYSTEM
Our Gummy Strap Closure System has changed the game for wakeboarders around the world when it comes to dialing in the perfect amount of pressure throughout the boot.
BUILT-IN J BARS
In the heels of the liners, built-in J Bars cup the back of the riders ankle to eliminate all play in the heel of the boot, elevating both the support and performance.
3D-MOLDED TONGUE
3D-molded tongues make our boots fit like a glove every time you slide in. Forget about the classic wiggle and dance to find the perfect place for your foot—with 3D molded tongues the fit is perfect time after time.
REMOVABLE / WALKABLE LINERS
Space Mob Removable Liners got an upgrade of reinforcements in 2022 with stronger materials, upgraded stitching techniques and more. They are built to protect wakeboarders on the world's rockiest shorelines.
CUSTOM FLEX OPTIONS
The Space Mob's removable secondary tongue allows riders to completely customize the flex of their boots. For those who prefer the most supportive boots, leave the tongues installed. For those who want a softer flex, run without.
