The Trickster is that fun shredding short kite board for onshore to small down the line waves. Fun for flatwater edging and crusing and adding some fun freestyle when you feel like it.

Designed with a slight concave deck and a grab rail shaped rail profile for easy grabbing in tricks and airs. The new Carbon Exoskeleton Construction is an incredibly efficient way by which we create and control the flex in our EPS Epoxy boards. Our layups are fine tuned to allow the board to flex slower than a normal EPS board. The Trickster features a concave Skate Deck designed to improve your grip and stance during extreme maneuvers. Sporting five fin boxes this board is very versatile, ready to be ridden as a Thruster or Quad. The construction on this kite board is bomber, with an additional higher ding resistance compared to our surf boards, still it’s super light and has an amazingly good surfy feel.

Available in 4’10”, 5’0”, 5’2”, 5’4”.

5 Futures White ILT finboxes.

HIGH PERFORMANCE THRUSTER

The Driver is our performance strapless kite board, built for firing conditions. Designed with Nicollo Porcella, and his needs as an extreme kiter and waterman, we used the high performance outline of the Crusher but introduced a much more sturdy lamination.

I brought the outlines narrower and volumes and rail thicknesses down to help control the faster more aggressive speeds of kiting. This board works insane in average to excellent conditions. The new Carbon Exoskeleton Construction is an incredibly efficient way by which we create and control the flex in our EPS Epoxy boards. Our layups are fine tuned to allow the board to flex slower than a normal EPS board.

2024 SLASH SLS

SMALL TO MEDIUM WAVES / STRAPLESS FREESTYLE

Duotone Slash SLS Directional Kiteboard 2024
Duotone Slash SLS Directional Kiteboard 2024

2024 Duotone Slash SLS Overview  

Absolutely new for the 2023 season for all Young Bloods is the Slash, a purpose-built grom edition of the Whip SLS designed for smaller riders looking to maximise their performance on the water. Perfect for strapless and wave riding, the board is ideal for youngsters wanting to get into the discipline and fantastic for riders hustling for podiums and everyone in between.

As the strapless freestyle and wave discipline is pushed into the spotlight all around the world with the help of the GKA World Tour gaining fame, many younger riders are taking notice. For the “Young Bloods” who would rather throw strapless front rolls and smash waves, this is the perfect board for their quiver. Designed by legendary shaper Sky Solbach, the board is a trimmed down version of the exceedingly popular Whip SLS. This shape is tried and tested and works perfectly in small to medium-sized waves and is ideal for getting airtime.

The compact design lends itself well to younger and smaller riders too. Duotone will also be running Young Blood Camps again in 2022/23 looking to garner new talent among the sports youth. If your hero is more Airton Cozzolino and James Carew than a twintip freestyler, this is the board for you! The Slash features all the performance benefits of the Whip SLS in a smaller package for young up and coming rippers!
