Different by design.
Founded in 1999 in the Columbia River Gorge and still headquartered in Hood River, Oregon. Brothers Jeff and Tony Logosz built the brand from the ground up — Jeff as CEO, Tony as chief designer — and spent two decades introducing design features that became industry norms, from the One‑Pump system to SplitStrut canopies. Today Slingshot is the world's largest hydrofoil manufacturer, though kite remains its primary focus.
Performance / Reliability / Evolution
The next evolution of the world's first rider-designed New School Big Air kite, built by GKA World Champion Jeremy Burlando and refined with designer Adi Conrad. Slingshot's ride guide describes a kite that “doesn't just react — it communicates.” Burlando calls it the “Silent Killa,” because it speaks through feel, not force.
Waist-deep, bathtub-warm, and blowing most of the season — the lagoon does half the teaching. Two coaches, four disciplines, never more than two students per instructor. Mikey and Tom take it from here.
Live wind on our home spot — check it before you lock in a session.
Our home water is flat, warm, and shallow — the ideal classroom for fast, safe progression, and a launch point for safaris when you are ready to roam.
Every lesson — private or small group of three — I'm the one teaching. Same coach from your first wind-theory chat to your first transition. Sessions run in Spanish, English, French, or Portuguese.
Name the move and we build the ladder to it — big air, rotations, board-offs, unhooked. We film every attempt, break it down between sessions, and rebuild it until it sticks.
Book advanced sessionWe ride and teach on Slingshot and Ride Engine — and it's what's listed for sale here.
Born on the water, built for travel. From home breaks to downwind safaris across continents — same crew, same standard, every session.
Science you can feel.
Founded in Santa Cruz and now run out of Hood River, Oregon, as a Slingshot Sports company — the two brands share one address and one engineering bench. Ride Engine revolutionized wind-sport harnesses with the data-driven invention of the hard-shell design, launching three refined Armor harnesses internationally in 2015 and a full wetsuit line the same season.
Biometric shaping / Curv® composite / no water absorption
Ride Engine's Curv® composite isn't merely lightweight — its high tensile strength lets the shell hold the scientifically designed Lumbar Lock shape, which the brand credits with eliminating harness rise and twisting on the body. The Hyperlock spreader-bar system replaces the traditional webbing connection with patented ratchets, tested over six years.

Immersive multi-day camps and downwind safaris — morning sessions, afternoon theory, evenings by the water. Small groups, big progress.
We launch when the lagoon is glass and the wind is cleanest — three coached hours before lunch, every day.
Your sessions get filmed. Evening breakdowns show you exactly what to change tomorrow.
Semi-private by design. You are never waiting on the beach while someone else rides.
Private room steps from flat, warm, waist-deep water. Wake up, look at the palms, rig up.
A rough day-by-day breakdown of a beginner course. Every rider moves at their own pace — these are the kinds of skills you'll work on, not a checklist of what you'll finish.
Everything you need to know before you book. If something's missing, just message on WhatsApp.
Tell us your dates. We'll match them to the wind forecast, pick your discipline, and hold the best slots before they go.
