From Slingshot

Who it's for:

Built for the rider who wants the most explosive pop, the smoothest landings, and does not want their gear to hold them back from breaking their personal big air records. Designed in tandem with Jeremy Burlando, the ERA redefines performance standards for the next generation of riders.

The Design Difference:

New School Big Air demands precision, power, and control, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. The ERA V1 Twin Tip, engineered with the input and expertise of Jeremy Burlando, redefines performance standards for the next generation of riders, bringing you into the New School of Big Air kiteboarding. With its aggressive design, the ERA V1 delivers explosive pop and superior chop absorption, ensuring complete control even in the harshest conditions. Crafted with cutting-edge carbon construction, the ERA V1’s angled fins and a stiff belly, provide unmatched stability and power retention. The ERA V1 isn’t just a board; it’s a revolution in twin tip technology, designed for those who aspire to push the limits and join the next generation of New School Big Air Kiteboarders.

Features:
  • Max Edge Rail
    • The Max Edge Rail is a design concept that gives you added grip without added drag. The downturned edges closer to the tips of the board will give you extra grip to be able to hold down maximum power for record-breaking boosts.
  • X-Core Nucleus
    • The stiffest board in our lineup, the Era V1 features our X-Core Nucleus construction in carbon. This multi-axial carbon layup stiffens the belly but allows the tip and tail to flex giving the rider a more predictable ride with ultimate performance.
  • Single-Shot Fusion Sidewall
    • Our innovative Single Shot Fusion Sidewall incorporates cork to enhance the board’s ability to absorb chop while kiting. This advanced sidewall design not only increases the board’s performance in rough conditions but also adds durability.
  • Angled Fins
    • The newly designed Era features angled fins designed to enhance grip in the water, resulting in improved upwind performance, increased pop, and higher jumps.
  • Full-Length Double Concave Hull
    • Provides the smoothest on-water riding experience. Upon landing a jump, the spine of the double concave is the first thing to touch the water, which breaks the surface tension and provides buttery soft landings.
  • High Modulus Carbon Construction
    • A blend of high modulus 30/30 Carbon Fiber—from tip to tip—provides explosive pop and trick propulsion in an incredibly lightweight and strong package.
  • Strategic Carbon Bedrock Inserts
    • We have reduced the amount of stance options in our Carbon Bedrock Insert pack. This reduces weight and even strengthens the foundation of the already robust Carbon Bedrock Insert.
  • DuraLite Base
    • This .2mm base material has the ideal strength-to-weight ratio. Lightweight performance in a strong and durable package.
  • Atomic Wood Core
    • Sustainably grown Paulownia wood gives boards a lively and springy character. The vertically laminated construction optimizes the collective strength of the wood and provides strength, durability, and consistent flex.
Package Includes:
  • ERA V1 Twin Tip
  • 4x 1.75" Fins
  • Grab Handle

Great performance jumper for bigger riders!

I've been having a lot of fun with this board! Feels great under my feet, really nice upwind performance and awesome boosting performance. Other folks have commented on how stiff the board feels, but at 220lbs, I've actually found the flex on this really pleasant. Landings feel smooth and it's not too bumpy through the choppy sections. It's definitely a pretty stiff board, but I think bigger riders like myself who are looking for a high performance twin tip for big air will really enjoy this model. Great board for those super high wind days. I've been riding this a little smaller than most of my other twin tips at 136cm (I'm usually riding 138-140cm) and its been great on pretty high wind days when it's blowing 30+

Great for big air, probably not for the everyday cruiser

This board definitely lives up to the hype of a being a great big air option. It has a ton of grip against the water and if you are high level rider that is very good at loading and popping then you can get a lot of performance out of this board. However it is SUPER stiff. If you are looking for a board to just cruise around on then look elsewhere. Also I would recommend sizing down from your normal dimensions for his board. I am 135lbs and normally ride a 135cm board for big air, in the ERA V1 I ride a 132cm.
