Slingshot Joystick v1 Control Bar

With the help of Fred Hope, Slingshot produced the Joystick, the most minimal control bar on the market. The Joystick is a must for any avid kitefoiler. The freedom of movement and control this bar offers is unmatched by any other stock control bar. It's no wonder the Joystick is the go-to control system for foil master, Fred Hope. Enhance your kitefoil experience with maximum throw on the ultra lightweight Joystick V1. Joystick V1 - Light / Minimal / Control Without a depower cleat, the Joystick has Infinite Throw: the largest range of throw on any control bar ever built. With 50% more range than a traditional control bar, the Joystick provides maximum depower for complete freedom of movement on foil or surf. The Joystick has the SureShot Click-In Safety System, which sets the standard for dependability and ease of use. The ultra-thin 22mm diameter bar and Variable FlyTech Lines combine to deliver reduced weight and amplify foil and surf performance where a kite's nimble handling and efficient drift are critical. The Joystick comes with 18-meter lines and four-meter extensions, allowing the rider to quickly customize the line lengths to meet their riding style, kite size, and conditions. SURESHOT QUICK RELEASE The Joystick comes with SureShot, our redesigned, refined, and streamlined quick- release safety system. Optimized for kite foiling, the reduced-sized surf/foil chicken loop brings the bar closer to the rider's body, maximizing depower reach.

Employing an intelligently designed seatbelt-style click-in mechanism, which allows a rider to reconnect the chicken loop easily and confidently with one hand, SureShot sets the industry benchmark for dependability and ease of use.
