The lacing, in conjunction with our HHD system, ensures a secure hold in the lower part of the boot and has been complemented since 2021 by a second Gummy-Strap. This allows for optimal adjustment of the boot around the ankle. The fit above the ankle can also be individually customized with a Gummy-Strap. Everything from a snug fit to a loose fit is achievable!
The HHD system (Heel Hold Down) provides the best possible support to the ankle from all sides. At the same time, it keeps the heel in place, making annoying slipping a thing of the past for RAD riders.
Finally, a simple and effective solution to a problem that has plagued wakeboard boots from the beginning. Our Gummy-Straps are the key to a revolutionary closure system made of durable and high-strength thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), allowing the boots to be securely fastened evenly. No loosening over time, no Velcro, and no tedious adjustments anymore.
Heavy boots that feel like bricks on your feet are a thing of the past. With our new aluminum rails, the Slingshot bindings are lighter than ever before, while also being more durable than in previous years.
The Bottomless Base System maximizes the board feel and the rider's connection with their board and the water. The shoe soles are in direct contact with the surface of the board, allowing for a more direct energy transfer without a stiff baseplate restricting the board's flex. This enhances both the board feel and control.
Even now, Slingshot remains true to the K9 mounting system, which ensures a stable connection to the board and prevents the heel or toe area of the boot from detaching during intense movements. With the various mounting options, the stance can be precisely adjusted according to your preferences.
