Light-Wind Wing Foiling · Early Lift · Efficient Glide
A fast-release midlength engineered to turn marginal wind into longer, more productive foil sessions.
The Slingshot Laser Craft V1 is built for intermediate-to-advanced riders who want earlier takeoffs with less pumping and less dependence on oversized wings. Its long, narrow outline builds speed efficiently, while the Blended Lunar Hull, stepped tail and Max Release Track Lip help the board separate cleanly from the water. The result is a light-wind wing foil board that accelerates quickly, releases predictably and keeps marginal conditions fun instead of exhausting.
The efficient midlength outline builds forward speed quickly, helping the foil reach flying speed when shorter boards feel sticky or underpowered.
Drag-reducing hull features and a clean-release tail minimize the effort needed to separate the board from the surface.
The Blended Lunar Hull and stepped tail prevent the board from feeling locked to the water, making takeoffs smoother and easier to repeat.
Extended Max Trax foil tracks provide a wide adjustment range, helping riders dial in lift, balance and stance for different foil systems.
Slingshot’s Blended Lunar Hull is shaped to minimize drag and encourage the board to release from the water as soon as flying speed is reached.
The shortened release surface creates extra clearance during pumping, reducing the chance of the longer tail striking the water and slowing the board.
Angled tail geometry channels water away from the back of the board for a cleaner break and quicker transition from displacement to flight.
The release lip around the foil-track area helps break surface tension and reduce the suction that can make conventional boards slow to lift.
Slingshot’s extended track system provides generous front-to-back mast adjustment for tuning different foil combinations and riding styles.
Full deck coverage provides traction over a broad stance range, helping with foot switches, tacks and finding the correct position for different foils.
Shaped rails reduce contact during touchdowns and turns while helping the board reconnect with the water more smoothly.
An EVA scrape strip helps protect the board when it is placed upside down during foil installation or rests on the beach.

| 115 L | 7'4" × 20.5" × 6" | 223.5 × 52.1 × 15.2 cm | 14.33 lb / 6.50 kg | Larger riders or maximum light-wind glide |
Dimensions are listed as length × width × thickness. Slingshot states that board weights may vary by approximately ±5%.
| Size | Choose It If... | Ride Character |
|---|---|---|
| 95 L | You are a lighter or confident rider who wants the shortest Laser Craft. | The most maneuverable size with the lowest swing weight and a technical 19.8" width. |
| 105 L | You want the most balanced combination of flotation, stability and efficiency. | The all-around option, combining a 7'0" waterline with the full 20.5" width. |
| 115 L | You are a larger rider or prioritize maximum glide and positive flotation. | The longest waterline and highest volume for marginal wind and downwind-style runs. |
The Laser Craft V1 is best for an intermediate-to-advanced wing foiler who already has reliable starts and wants to expand the usable wind range. Its efficient shape rewards riders working on tacks, foot switches, flagged-out glides and longer foil connections.
Complete beginners may find its narrow width more demanding than a conventional wide wing board. Riders prioritizing first-day stability should consider a wider progression-focused shape, while riders wanting maximum downwind paddle performance may prefer a dedicated SUP downwind board.
It is not primarily a first-session board. Its narrow outline is most appropriate for intermediate-to-advanced riders, even though the available volumes provide useful flotation.
The long waterline builds speed efficiently, while the Lunar Hull, stepped tail and track-area release lip reduce drag and help the board separate from the water.
Yes. Slingshot positions it as a crossover for wing-foil cruising and downwind-style runs. Paddle-up downwinding requires suitable balance, volume and experience.
The Max Trax system is intended for standard plate-mount foil masts. Always verify mast-plate dimensions, bolt length and washer requirements.
No. Slingshot explicitly states that foil-track hardware is not included. Slingshot masts normally include the required board-mounting hardware.
No. The package includes the Laser Craft board only. The foil system, mounting hardware, leash, wing and board bag are sold separately.
