Twin Tip Upwind 360
The last move of 2024! This is a classic strapless move, favourably adopted by the foiling community, and has a place in every twin tipper box of tricks. Moreover, if you’ve nailed the twin-tip duck tack, the carving upwind 360 is the flowing follow-up you never realised you needed. Still, you so do:) You’ll use the skills you already have...
Board Swap Back Loop
There are subtle ways to impress and more swanky ways to enjoy yourself. This, however, is a smooth hybrid in true Heliarde style. Someone loses their board, why not try it out! What better way to switch craft, than mid-flight during a sent back rotation. Who wouldn’t? Skills needed. Realistically a grabbed Back Loop Transition would be ideal as at...

The DUOTONE Evo D/LAB 2027 is a premium three-strut inflatable kite designed as a high-performance all-rounder for freeride, big air, freestyle and wave sessions. It is aimed at experienced and ambitious riders who want one responsive platform across several disciplines rather than a narrowly specialised kite.

DUOTONE TS Freestyle SLS
The TS Freestyle SLS is Duotone's competition-focused freestyle twin tip for advanced riders concentrating on powered unhooked tricks, technical passes and repeatable landings.

Duotone positions it for...
Cabrinha Vapor Apex
