Slingshot Lunacy
Specifications:
Year 2009
Description:
2009 Slingshot Lunacy... Get Mental!
OVERVIEW
Riding the wave of success from the Lunacy's first generation,
Slingshot debuts the 09 Lunacy with Lenten custom graphics as a
precursor to the highly anticipated Freestyle Collection.
Now the Lunacy is available in a 129, 132 and 135 cm which
offers more options for the rider to make the Lunacy their own.
The Lunacy is the first ever “pro-model” board appropriately named
with reference to how insane Ruben Lenten rides. It's MENTAL!
After experiencing the benefits of Slingshot’s proprietary core technology
FRT*, used in the Slingshot wakeboards, Ruben knew he needed to
incorporate this feature into his next kiteboard. Chief Board Designer
John Doyle and Ruben Lenten
have combined their unique talents and skill to create the ultimate
kiteboard for hard core freestyle riding and competition.
The Lunacy is the ONLY kiteboard equipped with FRT*.
The Lunacy is a super aggressive twin tip and maintains a wide shape,
sharp rail and extreme tip power.
Translation, it delivers unmatched drive and massive pop!
The Slingshot Lunacy, now offered in 3 sizes, is made for hard core
freestyle riders like Ruben Lenten. Leave your excuses at home!
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
• FRT*: Future Response Technology: flex, rebound, energy and pop
• FRT* core: light weight, strong
• Twin tip: made to be ridden both ways
• Sharp square tip angle: loads of “hook up”
• Wide shape and lots of tip power: more pop and overall drive
• Ideal for flat water freestyle riding
• Parabolic rails: more power with an aggressive tip and tail bit
• Single concave and constant curve rocker: added stability
• Made in the USA: quality assurance #1!
• Slingshot Legendary Construction: bomber quality
• Lifetime Rider Hotline Support membership

My daughter, Kaela, wants those boots. But they'll be going on one of Dad's boards.

Boots Boots Boots! Does it actually have reinforced inserts for boots or are you just screwing them down into inserts meant for straps?
132 is a bit small for boots unless you have a small foot and weigh around 120 lbs. Defeats the purpose of riding bigger so you can pop bigger.
139x41 would be best for someone my size. For anyone wanting to ride boots keep this in mind.
