SUMMARY
In this conversation, Taylor from DUOTONE introduces the new units and wings offered by Duotone. The main focus is on the D-Lab model, which now comes with the option of a boom or handles.
The boom offers a freestyle orientation and makes the wing lighter and stronger. The SLS model is introduced as an environmentally friendly option. The conversation then shifts to the new Float wing, which is designed to float behind the rider and is extremely lightweight.
In the second part of the conversation, Jeffrey Spencer talks about the new boards in the 2025 line for Duotone. The Sky Style board features a wider nose and tail for stability, while the Free board is designed for beginners. The Skybrid is a mid-length board with a narrow outline and single concave bottom. The Downwinder board is updated with refinements in the overall outline and a more efficient design.
