Slingshot Project Drag Foil Board

High-Performance Downwind, Parawing & Wing Foiling

The Slingshot Project Drag Foil Board is designed for riders who demand precise control, responsive carving, and exceptional touchdown recovery. Developed by Ken Adgate and Kyle Touhey, the Project Drag combines a rounded hull, aggressive forward chines, and increased tail rocker to create a high-performance foil board built for downwind, parawing, and wing foiling.

Designed to excel in open-water swell and challenging conditions, the Project Drag prioritizes maneuverability and control while maintaining a direct connection to the foil. Whether you're linking bumps on a Columbia River Gorge downwinder, carving ocean swell, or pushing your wing foiling performance, the Project Drag delivers a responsive and predictable ride.

Performance & Technology

Rounded Hull – Smooth Touchdown Recovery

The Project Drag features a rounded bottom shape designed to release cleanly from the water during touchdowns. This helps reduce sudden deceleration and allows riders to maintain momentum and control when the board contacts the surface.

Aggressive Forward Chines – Confident Carving

Pronounced forward chines help prevent the rails from catching during aggressive turns and touchdowns. This design allows the board to transition smoothly through the water, making it ideal for carving swell and navigating variable conditions.

Increased Tail Rocker – Improved Maneuverability

Additional tail rocker helps prevent the back of the board from sticking during pumping and touchdowns. The result is improved maneuverability, smoother transitions, and a more responsive feel when linking bumps or making quick directional changes.

Matched Rocker Profile – Optimized for Swell

The Project Drag's rocker profile is designed to complement the natural curvature of ocean swell, providing predictable handling at speed and improved control through turns.

Carbon Track or Tuttle Foil Connection

Available with either a Carbon Track System or Tuttle Box, the Project Drag offers a direct and responsive connection between the board and foil.

• Carbon Track System: Provides adjustable mast positioning and a stiff connection for precise control.

• Tuttle Box: Offers a rigid, low-drag connection for compatible foil systems.

Size & Dimensions

Choosing the Right Slingshot Project Drag Size

The Project Drag is available in six volumes to accommodate different rider weights, experience levels, and foiling disciplines.

Smaller sizes provide a compact, responsive platform for experienced riders focused on carving and maneuverability. Larger sizes offer additional flotation and surface area for easier starts and increased versatility in lighter conditions.

Selecting the appropriate volume depends on rider weight, foil setup, wind conditions, and intended use.
