DUOTONE FALCON_FIN SLSDUOTONE FALCON_FIN SLSDuotone have just released the exciting new Falcon_Fin SLS, which is easier to sail than ever and also lighter, offering the best weight vs. durability ratio in its class. The SLS technology replaces most carbon layers with exclusive S-GLASS+, making the board smoother and more forgiving in rough conditions. Check out all the details from Duotone here:DUOTONE FALCON_FIN SLS Falcon_Fin SLS in a nutshellThe new Falcon_Fin boards are easier to sail than ever, requiring no more skill than the JAG while offering greater comfort and speed. A refined rail shape, with the apex moved up in front of the front straps, smooths the ride, while a shorter length reduces nose lift for better control: because control = speed. The SLS technology replaces most carbon layers with exclusive S-GLASS+, making the board smoother and more forgiving in rough conditions. Besides the construction, there are two more differences from the Falcon_Fin D/LAB: a less radical recess deck for comfort in floating and easier planing, and more inboard footstrap options for a easier and relaxed ride.FreeraceSizes:98 | 111 | 118 | 129 | 139PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS:Most competitive fin racing shapes yet super easy to rideBest in class weight-durability ratioDUOTONE FALCON_FIN SLSOne of the most frequently asked question from freerace customers about the 2026 range is why we have discontinued the JAG SLS. Well, on the one hand the brand-new BLITZ offers even more performance compared to its predecessor, the BLAST. But even more important the new generation of FALCON_FIN boards are that much easier to sail. In fact, they dont require a higher sailing level than the JAG.We have achieved this primarily through a sophisticated new rail shape design. The apex of the rail in front of the front straps has been moved up. This has a tremendous effect on the riding comfort, as everything just becomes a lot smoother.Secondly, we have reduced the overall length, which reduces the nose lift and this increases control again.Yet due to the golden rule control = speed these boards are even faster now, which is particularly noticeable when compared to the JAG.Last but not least the SLS technology comes into play. The majority of the carbon layers in the D/LAB version are replaced by our exclusive S-GLASS+, which makes the FALCON_FIN SLS a lot smoother and even more forgiving in rough conditions. So unlike youre a top level competitor in the end this slightly more forgiving construction will make you a faster sailor.But thats not all HERE IS WHATS NEWFULL CUSTOM SLS TECHNOLOGYSwitching from the industry-standard semi custom technology to our exclusive FULLY CUSTOM TECHNOLOGY enabled us to reduce the weights by up to 250 grams.
