Why You’ll Love It
One Board, Multiple Ways to Ride
Paddle it as a stable recreational SUP, connect a compatible windsurf rig to the mast track or use it for surface wingsurfing with a handheld wing.
Beginner-Friendly Stability
The 11-foot length, 33-inch width and 230 liters of volume create a planted platform that makes balancing, uphauling and learning sail control less intimidating.
Better Upwind Tracking
The removable sUP WINDer keel fin adds lateral resistance beneath the center of the board, helping windsurfers and wingsurfers hold their ground and travel upwind more effectively.
Comfortable Soft Deck
Tip-to-tail EVA provides a forgiving surface for bare feet, knees and family use while adding dependable traction throughout the usable deck area.
Technical Features
Integrated Windsurf Mast Track
The built-in mast track lets the Cross Sport accept a compatible mast-base assembly and recreational windsurf rig. The rig and connection hardware are sold separately.
Removable SUP WINDer Keel Fin
Install the keel fin for wind-powered riding when additional lateral resistance is useful. It can be removed when the board is being used primarily for stand-up paddling.
9" FCS II Quick-Release Fin
The included 9-inch center fin supports straight-line tracking and uses a convenient FCS II quick-release installation system.
Tip-to-Tail EVA
Full-board EVA cushioning gives beginners a more comfortable surface while providing traction across a wide range of standing and kneeling positions.
Cargo and Carry Features
Integrated bungee attachment points secure light on-water essentials, while the grab handle simplifies carrying the board between the vehicle and shoreline.
Manual Vent Plug
The vent plug allows internal pressure to be equalized when required. Follow Slingshot’s instructions when transporting, storing or servicing the board.

Who Is the Cross Sport V1 For?
Beginner Windsurfers
The generous platform provides the stability needed for learning to uphaul, stand comfortably and develop basic steering and sail-handling skills.
Recreational Paddlers
Its long, stable outline works well for relaxed cruising on lakes, bays and other protected water when paired with a suitable SUP paddle.
Families and Shared Quivers
The comfortable soft deck and versatile setup make the Cross Sport a practical option for households that want one approachable board for multiple riders and activities.
Surface Wingsurfing
Add a handheld wing and the SUP WINDer keel fin for non-foiling wing-powered cruising and introductory wing handling.
Performance note: The Cross Sport is a stable multisport SUP and introductory windsurf platform—not a planing-oriented shortboard or windfoil board. It does not include a foil mounting system.
Setup Guide
Stand-Up Paddling
Install the included 9-inch FCS II fin and add your preferred SUP paddle and appropriately sized leash. The SUP WINDer keel fin can normally be removed for conventional paddling.
Windsurfing
Install both the 9-inch fin and SUP WINDer keel fin, then connect a compatible mast-base assembly and complete recreational windsurf rig to the mast track.
Wingsurfing
Use the primary fin and keel fin with a handheld wing for surface riding. This configuration is intended for wingsurfing rather than wing foiling.
Transport and Care
Protect the board from excessive heat and impacts during transport. Check the vent plug and fin installation before launching, and rinse saltwater equipment with fresh water after use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Cross Sport V1 inflatable?
No. This Soft Top model is a rigid board with a cushioned EVA deck. It should not be confused with Slingshot’s inflatable Airtech models.
Does it include a windsurf sail?
No. Slingshot specifically states that the windsurf sail is not included. You will need a complete compatible rig and mast-base connection.
Does it include a paddle?
No. A stand-up paddle must be purchased separately if you plan to use the board as a SUP.
Can it be used for wing foiling?
No. The Cross Sport can be used for non-foiling wingsurfing, but it does not have the foil tracks or foil-ready box required to mount a hydrofoil.
What does the SUP WINDer fin do?
It acts like a removable centerboard, reducing sideways drift and helping the board stay upwind when powered by a windsurf sail or handheld wing.
Is it suitable for experienced windsurfers?
It can be fun for relaxed cruising, teaching and family sessions, but experienced riders seeking planing speed, carving performance or foiling should choose a dedicated windsurf or windfoil board.
