When I purchased my Slingshot Dialer board, it came with some bolts and a vent screw. Beside the vent screw, is that hardware extra? The foil kit with the Gamma 68cm wing and rear wing, mast, fuesallodge etc, seems to have all the hardware. Also, the i84 wing came with hardware too. Can that hardware be used with the Gamma 68cm front wing? That would be nice to have extra spare hardware for the future.


The gamma comes with longer bolts and a mast cap that is not as slick, but imho built better. You can use the gamma's longer bolts and mast cap with the 84cm wing. You may have to pop the mast cap out though, and it may not hurt to shim the mast cap with tape. I have done this successfully. It may be easier just to use the specified hardware for each one.

Why doesn't Slingshot bag the hardware in separate bags with the bolt sizing printed on each bag that would correspond with the bolt sizing in the owners manual?

There is a reason why you see the i76 all over the place in the Columbia Gorge. i76 wind range is wide.

Yes if I lived in the Gorge, I'd probably have gone for the 76 over the 84. The Gorge is its own little world for sure.
