Slingshot Joystick V2 Bar

Foil-specific control bar designed by Slingshot

The Slingshot Joystick V2 is built specifically for kite foilers who value lightweight simplicity and precise control. This second-generation Joystick continues the minimalist concept of the V1, but with several refinements that make it even more efficient, intuitive, and comfortable to ride.

Just like the first version, there is no depower cleat. Instead, you benefit from the Infinite Throw system, which lets you push the bar up to 50% farther away, offering an incredibly wide depower range. This is ideal for foilers who need maximum drift and freedom of movement while riding. What’s new in the V2 is the AutoUnswivel system, which automatically untwists your front lines after backrolls or downloops. This means less hassle and more focus on your technique. The finger ridge on the bar has also been improved for better tactile feedback and grip, so you can ride with more confidence without constantly checking your bar position.

The Joystick V2 remains the slimmest control bar in the Slingshot lineup, with a diameter of just 22 mm. The MotoPlush EVA grip has been further refined for better comfort and traction during long sessions. The total bar weight is just 860 grams, and thanks to optimized finishing, it now feels even more precise in your hands. The bar uses the same trusted FlyTech SK-99 Dyneema lines as the V1, known for their high strength, minimal stretch, and UV resistance. It comes with 18-meter lines plus 4-meter extensions, allowing you to adapt the setup to your personal style or wind conditions. For safety, it features the ISO-certified SureShot Click-In Quick Release system, easy to release with one hand and quick to reassemble. The bar comes with a compact surf/foil chicken loop that brings the bar closer to your body for better control while foiling.
