Description

Slingshot wake boots are designed and developed to put the rider in the most naturally athletic stance and to take wakeboarding to another level. Like every sport, this starting place puts your weight on the balls of your feet. From that point you initiate heel pressure or toe pressure. As simple and as natural as it sounds, wakeboarding has drifted away from this concept. The reason for the divergence is the heel hold, the use of compromising materials and inferior design. The reality is nothing’s going to work if your heel isn’t locked down. Binding developers of the past thought they had solved this problem and the problem of squirting out of the toes by building toe ramps. This, in effect, lowered your heel below the ball of your foot resulting in the most non athletic and unnatural position imaginable. Don’t take our word for it...try surfing, skating, or snowboarding in this position. It’s very difficult, uncomfortable, and unnatural.

Slingshot shares the same functional holy grail of heel hold...but the key is to put the rider into the most athletic and aggressive riding position. The ultimate solution was the closed toe boot. The Jewel is Slingshot’s homage to the female rider who demands a high performance wakeboard boot. The Jewel combines all the advanced technology that has been put into the men’s D2 and PB Floyd boots...but custom tailored for the ladies. The Slingshot Jewel is an industry first women’s wakeboard binding that comes with an integrated boot and 4-hole binding system especially tailored for women. The removable and heat formable Ultralon EVA Intuition liner is specifically formed to accommodate a lower calf muscle on a woman’s leg and adds to unmatched comfort to keep you on the water all day long! New for '08, the Jewel also comes with a Transition Plate to allow the rider to use the Jewel boot and older style boards with 8” 2-hole configurations.

Superior By Design

-Integrated boot and 4-hole binding system: low profile binding is integrated into the sole of the boot providing an adjustable attachment to the board that eliminates heel and toe lift...Power is transferred from the rider directly to the board.
-Fully supported and fully adjustable ergonomic fit: unmatched comfort, more water time.
-Removable and heat formable Ultralon EVA Intuition liner: custom fit the liner to your foot.
-All new construction and materials: a smaller, lighter. and tighter fitting boot.
-Contoured Poron foot bed: provides heel wrapping support and comfort for big landings.
-Flow release water ports: these reduce the overall weight and provide an easy way for the water to escape.
-Tool-less on-the-fly rotation and stance adjustment: change your duck angle in no time...eight different angles on both feet allow the rider to custom select their stance.
-Lightweight EVA sole: reduces vibration and provides shock absorption in the heel for stomping big jumps...and...since it has no rubber, it is the lightest sole on the market...and its low profile skate design puts you lower to the board than any other boot available.
-Power Plugs: faster turns and no delay for aggressive riders.
-D2 zonal speed lacing: upper and lower lacing built into one lace system. The lower foot can be cinched up tight and the upper left loose for the riders who like good heel hold but a softer flexing upper. Or...the lower can be set loose with the upper tight to provide heel hold and performance with no pressure over your toes.
-D2 lace locks: locking hooks lock the lacing system tight so it won’t loosen during riding and helps you set the tightness just right.
-Quick step instep harness with cinch cross: internal harness slips over the liner to add support and tighten the liner around your foot for maximum performance.
-Legendary Slingshot construction: bomber quality.
