KITE FOILING / WAVE / LIGHTWIND FREERIDE
One kite to rule them all — that's what the Slingshot Ghost V4 is all about. With a focus on simplicity and efficiency, this ultra-light, easy-relaunch kite is ideal for foiling, wave riding, or lightwind. Newer riders will appreciate its handling while those experienced shredders will enjoy the kite's responsiveness in waves or on foil.
New for 2026 is a refined canopy that keeps the kite crisp session after session. The TrimFlight Bridle reduces drag, and the all-new Single Luff-Strut Construction allows for a more natural and aerodynamic canopy shape for faster turning. For those who like a more personalized experience, the Rider Customization System (RCS) lets you fine-tune your bar pressure to match your performance needs.
What Slingshot has to say:
LIGHTWEIGHT / VERSATILE / EFFORTLESS
The Ghost V4 is our answer for beginners seeking an easy-to-use kite and enthusiasts looking to pack light while excelling across multiple disciplines. Engineered for effortless water starts, it delivers smooth low-end power and sheet-and-go efficiency, keeping you riding even through light wind lulls. Every feature of this kite pursues durability and weight savings to keep the kite in the air as much as possible- and keep you the rider on the board when others sink.
Who It's For?
Ideal for riders who want a lightweight, versatile kite for foiling, wave riding and light-wind freeriding.
The Design Difference:
The Ghost V4 remains our lightweight, user-friendly, multi-discipline kite—your go-to tool for twintipping, surfboarding, and kite foiling. Built with FrameLITE construction, a 4x4 canopy, and Single Luff-Strut Construction, it strikes the perfect balance between durability and weight savings. New for V4 is a refined canopy layout that resists bagging out, along with a reinforced center strut for added structure and stability, even after water crashes.
Detailed Features:
Single Luff-Strut Construction
The all-new single luff-strut separates the strut from the kites’ canopy. This allows for a more natural and aerodynamic canopy profile that reduces drag and creates faster turning speeds and better kite control.
4X4 Canopy Tech
The strongest, stiffest, and most durable canopy material used in any kite. 4X4 Canopy Tech is rein- forced ripstop nylon with a 4X4 weave that delivers unrivaled tear resistance, near-zero stretch, and season-after-season durability.
TrimFlight Bridle
The TrimFlight Bridle delivers the least amount of drag, which significantly increases the Ghost’s efficiency and response. More than just lightweight, the 6-point bridle geometry creates a cascade effect that maintains structure in the kite while providing the rider with pinpoint steering accuracy.
Compact Swept C Canopy
The Compact Swept-C Canopy delivers a balanced blend of stability, drift, and relaunch performance. Its swept shape enhances low-end power and effortless water relaunch, while the compact profile im- proves responsiveness and control, making it an ideal choice for foiling, freeride, and wave sessions.
One-Strut Airframe
The One-Strut Airframe keeps the Ghost V4 ultra-light, maximizing drift, efficiency, and low-wind performance. This minimalist design enhances responsiveness and agility, making it perfect for foiling, freeride, and wave riding while ensuring effortless water relaunch.
Rider Customization System (RCS)
The Rider Customization System allows you to fine-tune your kite’s performance to match your unique riding style and conditions. With multiple attachment points and adjustable settings, you can optimize bar pressure, turning speed, and power delivery, ensuring a personalized and seamless experience every session.
DLE 140 Trailing Edge
DLE 140 material is the most anti stretch trailing edge material we have put in a kite. It was strategically placed along the trailing edge to prevent flapping over time. You will also notice a more direct response in power and a crisper feel in the bar. In the event that your kite gets dragged through the waves, you will have a much lower chance of catastrophic failure.
FrameLITE Construction:
Utilized throughout the Ghost V4’s airframe, this high-tenacity polyester features biaxial gridding and extensive emulsion coating, eliminating stretch in all directions to deliver superior response and handling in all conditions. The stiffness of FrameLITE’s unique weave structure significantly reduces elongation of the airframe and increases multi-season durability. At 160 grams per square meter, FrameLITE uncompromisingly offers the optimum balance of flex, strength, stiffness, and weight.
