I know this changes as it ranks up (and it's almost impossible to determine Ranks F-B), but I'm mostly curious about rank A and then subsequently rank 6 for those on KR: Is it the beginning, or the END of slipdash that has invulnerability frames?

Nimble dash? or Slip dash? Nimble Dash gives you 0.3 sec of invincibility time frames from the moment you get it. Slip dash is the one that slowly goes up to 0.3 sec.
For slip dash, you go into invincible almost right after you pressed space bar, with a slight initiation. The part where your Lann move his body back a little and prepares for dashing is where you can still be hit, whether stopping you from slip dashing or just chip away your hp while you slip dash. The higher your slip dash rank is, the more time you are invincible during slip dash, the whole animation length doesn't change, only the invincible time will increase.
Also, there's a brief time in-between slip dash and nimble dash that you're not invincible. Not sure if you will get knocked out of nimble dash, but I am sure there's also an initiation period that you can still get damaged and perform nimble dash at the same time.
Dashing into those rollers in boat one is a good practice. Gives you exactly when your invincibility will end.
