Duotone What's New 2024

ITEM NO 44240-3014 WAVE DUOTONE New for 2024, the Neo SLS sees further enhancements to improve the handling, making the kite feel smoother and turn even faster than before. If you want the ultimate balance between performance and power in a wave kite, this is it! NEO KEY FEATURES INCREDIBLE DRIFT The Neo SLS is famous for its incredible drifting abilities; the SLS version is noticeably light due to the Penta TX construction, allowing the kite to drift down the line like never before. SMOOTHER MORE REFINED HANDLING Changes to the wingtip shape and the new straighter Hybrid Flex Strut have refined the handling of the Neo SLS even further with a more dynamic and smoother feel as the kite turns. MAXIMISED TURNING SPEED The Neo SLS has long been known for its turning speed, and improvements this year increase the speed of the turn and the follow-through after the turn.The turning speed, when depowered, remains, allowing you to concentrate on the riding and not your kite. INCREDIBLY POWERFULWITHAMASSIVE DEPOWER RANGE The range of the Neo SLS is legendary! It has a huge bottom end, meaning you can get going on a smaller kite before other riders; this, coupled with impressive depower, will have you out riding for longer when the wind picks up, and with this impressive range you can get away with a smaller quiver. SLS CONSTRUCTION The SLS construction helps reduce the overall weight of the kite and improves performance by making the frame stiffer. In addition, materials like Penta TX and Trinity TX make the kite light while offering excellent durability. The new Neo SLS builds on the incredible legacy of the previous years and further enhances the rider experience. Featuring Hybrid Flex Struts, which are now straighter and a wider, squarer wing tip shape show the focus was set on further improving the handling of the kite. The result is a kite with smoother handling, faster steering and a shorter depower stroke, allowing you to dump power instantly. The Hybrid Flex Struts are controlled by the precisely tuned ratio of Penta TX and STW70 adjusted to optimize each kite size. The percentage of flex material in the tip struts decreases as the size increases. The new wing tips open up and flex when under pressure from the back lines, making for a super fast and near-instant initiation into the turn. The legendary wind range remains, with plenty of low-end power allowing you to get out whatever the conditions, while the top end keeps you on the water for longer. The Neo SLS features a Penta TX and Trinity TX construction, which combine lightweight materials with exceptional durability, resulting in a kite that is noticeable lighter than regular constructions. This weight reduction enhances the drifting capabilities of the Neo SLS, allowing you to execute your moves effortlessly on the wave without worrying about the kite. Even when depowered with the bar pushed away, the Neo SLS maintains its dynamic handling and steering, ensuring you retain full control while riding the wave. The kite's responsiveness remains unchanged, providing a seamless experience throughout your session. To ensure the kite can be versatile and meet the demands of wave riders and strapless freestylers, the Neo SLS offers multiple settings on the tips, allowing you to tailor the kite's performance to the specific conditions of the day. Whether you're indulging in a flatwater strapless freestyle session or playing in the waves, you can set the kite for maximum pop and powerful loops or fine-tune it for maximum drift and rapid turning speed, depending on your preference and the nature of the session. The Neo SLS has long set a standard for wave riding performance, and this year the enhanced performance takes the kite to new levels, both on the waves and in the air.
