DUOTONE E_PACE
Duotone say, “With the brand new 3-in-1 design the E_Pace gets an unprecedented trim range and can be extremely changed. That’s why depending on the trim, it’s both the most powerful, yet the fastest no-cam sail we’ve ever built! - Chief Sail Designer Kai Hopf. The brand-new E_PACEs are exactly the kind of athletic freeride sails that make windsurfing so fascinating and uncomplicated: easy to rig, accelerate like an e-motor and get into planing without pumping. Paired with competitive speed potential and the playful handling of a no-cam sail. This is pure windsurfing!” www.duotonesports.com
FANATIC 2020 SKY WING
Fanatic say, “The Sky Wing is our dedicated board range for “Wing Foiling”. Perfectly bridging the gap between our Sky SUP and Sky Surf ranges, these shapes are ultra-compact and loaded with volume for an easy start and maximum manoeuvrability in flight mode. Everything about the Sky Wing boards has been optimised for Wing Foiling. Once you’ve learned your first steps into this fascinating new discipline – the Sky Wing is exactly what you want! Much more compact than a SUP Foil board, yet still easy enough to start and get up and out of the water.” www.fanatic.com
