About this board

The Misfit has anchored Slingshot's twintip range for well over a decade as the board that does a bit of everything convincingly: comfortable freeriding, willing pop for tricks and a forgiving nature that keeps sessions fun when conditions turn scrappy. It never claims a specialist crown — its argument is that most riders are better served without one.
