Duotone 2024 Sky Style SLS Foil Board

The Skybrid SLS is the new mid-length board from Duotone featuring a longer and narrower outline while maintaining a wider nose and tail for incredible efficiency yet sustaining exceptional stability.

Constructed in premium SLS technology and longer Carbon foil tracks for minimum weight and increased adjustability, the Skybrid SLS ensures maximum performance, allowing the earliest flight in light winds and easy take-off with smaller, more efficient foils for the intermediate to advanced Wing Foiler.

The board is designed with a single concave to flat bottom shape for early planning and take-offs. Its raised front foot deck angle provides a more playful and responsive feeling while up on the foil, enhancing your overall riding experience through maneuvers and when surfing swell. The higher nose rocker helps prevent catching on the water and ensures smooth acceleration.

Cut-outs in the tail facilitate an early release from the water, while the beveled rails make takeoffs easier and offer more clearance through turns. This board excels in performance when set up for strapless riding but also has the option of using foot straps for those seeking more control during maneuvers and high-speed runs.

Experience the perfect combination of performance and efficiency with the Skybrid SLS our freeride hybrid between Downwinder and classic Wing Foiling shapes.

Taking what we learned from the Downwind boards initially introduced in 2023, the evolution of these boards is faster, more refined and even more stable per size for riders from rookie through advanced. Like the previous generation, these boards are also terrifically versatile and are excellent for lightwind winging and SUP surf foiling.

Seeking greater efficiency and user friendliness in the paddle popup, each size has been lengthened by 3.5-5% to improve paddling speed and increase stability. The foil tracks are now further forward as well for increased manoeuvrability and lift. When combined with subtle refinements to the rocker line and overall shape of the tail, these boards lift off the water exceptionally cleanly and easily.

Inspired by the new deck grip design on our Wing FG foilboards, the Downwind and Downwind Performance boards include a fully redesigned grip tailored specifically to provide riders with maximum control, comfort and versatility when downwinding. In conjunction with the flatter deck shape, this grip features raised central bars above the foil tracks and elevated blocks in each corner of the pad, front and back, for intuitive foot placement.

• Increased length: Greater paddling speed with improved stability and tracking for easier paddling.
• Split foredeck: Inspired by our Wing FG boards, the split anhedral foredeck shape sheds water with ease.
• Refined bow: Improved paddling efficiency and touchdown recovery and reduced swing weight for pumping and carving.
• Minimal deck recess: A flatter deck to hold more volume and shed standing water more quickly.
• New deck grip: Like on our Wing FG board range, raised deck grip arch bars and front/rear corner blocks provide intuitive foot placement references.
• Diamond V tail: All new tail shape with significantly more rocker and an extra chine to improve takeoff performance and minimise tail touchdowns when pumping and carving.
• Foil track placement: Pushed further forward for increased lift and manoeuvrability.
• Carbon foil tracks: Proprietary carbon fibre foil tracks are keyed directly into the fibres of the stringers for a fully integrated construction.
• Proven construction: Deck to bottom i-beam dual stringers provide maximum structural rigidity and durability.

• 96L: 7’2 / 218cm x 19 1/2" / 49.5cm x 5 1/2” 14cm
• 106L: 7’5 / 226cm x 20” / 50.8cm x 5 3/4” / 14.6cm
• 116L: 7’9 / 236cm x 20 1/4" / 51.4cm x 5 3/4” / 14.6cm
• 128L: 8’1 / 246cm x 20 3/4" / 52.7cm x 6” / 15.2cm
• 140L: 8’5 / 256cm x 21 3/4" / 53.6cm x 6” / 15.2cm

Ultimate efficiency in generating release from the water and control when on foil. Semi displacement chined /double concave nose allows the sink/ cork action but still maintains a long flat for aiding lift/ and frictionless touchdowns.

Narrow under waterline allows the corking take-off to come into effect but maintains balance with the area in the deck above the waterline.

In terms of lines, there’s nothing that looks this sleek, with performance to match its looks.
