The TS Park is Duotone's specialist wakestyle and park twin tip, built for riders using rails, sliders and other obstacles as well as powered freestyle features. Its priorities differ from a conventional freeride board: abrasion resistance, obstacle control, a boot-compatible stance and predictable flex matter more than minimum weight or easy cruising. Duotone developed the board around repeated park use, where the base, rails and inserts must tolerate contact that would quickly damage a standard twin tip.

Durable Park Construction

A dedicated Grind Base provides the principal wear surface for sliders and obstacles. Duotone describes the overall construction as highly resistant to repeated contact, allowing park riders to focus on features without treating the board as a conventional water-only design. Triax and Biax glass are combined to create an even flex pattern and reinforce the platform. Biax fibre contributes balanced longitudinal and torsional response, supporting controlled energy transfer and consistent pop while retaining the durability required for hard use.

Rails, Tips and Feature Control

Tucked Rails reduce the chance of an exposed edge catching abruptly and promote smoother carving and transitions. Mono Concave Tips are intended to improve control on rounded features, keeping the board settled as it moves across pipes or curved obstacles. The Slider Optimized Bottom Shape complements the Grind Base by creating a predictable contact surface. These features focus on how the board behaves on park structures as much as how it planes across open water.

Stance and Flex

Inline sliders create a boot-optimised stance, placing the rider over a stable and direct platform. The product description characterises the board as responsive and firm for demanding park features, while Duotone's associated technology information describes a balanced medium-flex behaviour. The practical outcome is a board intended to retain control and pop without becoming excessively nervous on obstacles. The stance, bottom and rail package is designed for riders who land powered tricks in boots and need reliable alignment through repeated feature hits.

Size and Specifications

The TS Park is supplied in a single 151 x 43 cm size, intended for riders from approximately 60 to 95 kg. It uses S-Bend WK 3.5 Glass 15 fins and has a published board weight of about 3.80 kg, with a stated tolerance of plus or minus five per cent. Duotone specifically notes that the board does not include grab-handle inserts. The single large platform reflects its boot and park focus, providing surface area and stability rather than offering a conventional size run.

Intended Use

Although the TS Park retains the pop and edge control needed for freestyle, its defining role is obstacle riding. The strengthened base, tucked rails and feature-oriented tips make sense for riders who regularly use a cable or kite park and expect frequent board-to-obstacle contact. Riders who do not need that protection may prefer a lighter freestyle board, while dedicated park users gain a construction designed around their particular wear and control requirements.

Summary

The TS Park is a durable, boot-oriented wakestyle board for rails, sliders and creative park riding. Its Grind Base, tucked rails, Mono Concave Tips, mixed glass construction, inline stance and large single size prioritise obstacle control and longevity. It is a focused choice for park riders rather than a general-purpose freeride twin tip.
