one of the few speed videos that shows how bloody fast you are going. This really gives a great perspective of the ass pucker factor!!

...and if you look very closely at the end of the clip you can see the new C3 Slingshot21 speed fin that Jacques has been using for a while now...

But there all sold out

Looks to almost be a weed fin, would have to be a p00fteenth of 45°

After sailing for a long time with the Venom I felt we could go wider, much wider without losing speed. Boogies design objective was to make a fin which goes upwind like no other fin of the same length, which goes super fast on average and on tight courses and has got tons of grip to safely bear off into the chop. I dare say the design objectives have been reached and moreover the fin also seems to have got a super high potential endspeed and that was the only part I was afraid of.

The gains which we have made in overall speed in gusty conditions are simply insane and the handling of the fin is a dream. It really has got the whole package for a safe and superfast speedride.

Hi Haggar,
we will get the first shipment in about a week, but it has pretty much sold out already except for one or two, but i couldn't tell for sure without checking it in the office on monday. send us an email and we'll put you on the list. first in, best dressed.
next shipment should be here end of october/early november at the latest

the new Slingshot speed fin will be available in three sizes for now 19/21/23 cm [we are working on some larger ones], but you have to keep in mind that they are the equivalent in power to about a "normal" speed/slalom fin 3-4cm longer.

the 19 and 21 will be best on a ~45cm wide speed board 6.2m sails and down, the 21 and 23 on a 48-50 cm wide board with sails up to 7.0m.
the great thing about the C3 Slingshot fin is that they have quite a bit of power and work exceptionally well on tighter courses as well as have a very high peak speed.
based on the recent results from Jacques the 21 seems to be the best allround size .
