TECH FEATURES

- ABSORPTION FLEX TIPS: Based on a unique new construction of the board in the tip area, the scoop rocker line ensures better response to changing situations. In underpowered riding, the board remains flat for fast planing. In overpowered riding, the scoop bends and provides for an increased level of control and stability. The flex tips absorb shocks and enable soft landings.

- TORSION FLEX: The special shape of the 3D cap allows torsion of the long axis of the board. This gives them more grip on the heel-side edge, rich and smooth landings, a direct drive and better upwind performance. Invented by Duotone.

- SOFT FLEX: Soft Flex boards are the most friendly and "easy to use" boards in our range. The Soft Flex option is forgiving and simply fun to ride, even if you are an inexperienced rider. However, the Soft Flex option is also suitable for more lightweight riders.

- MONO CONCAVE BOTTOM: All of the pure freeride boards are produced with Biax Fiber for the best dampening and comfort. The new, rounder outline makes it fun to chop and the wider tip area helps to get going early. The straight outline is the reason for good pop and sharp edge grip. All of these boards are quite narrow which makes them fast and ensures the best upwind abilities.

- BIAX FIBER CONSTRUCTION: The Biax Fiber Construction is used for the Duotone boards Gambler, Spike and Gonzales. These boards are produced with Biax Fiber for the best damping and comfort.
