BRAND-NEW AND UNIQUE

THE INTRODUCTION OF THE D/LAB BOARDS IN 2024 MARKED THE DAWN OF A NEW ERA. NOW, IN 2026, WE ARE EXCITED TO PRESENT THE BIGGEST UPDATE IN OUR BOARD HISTORY EVER. APART FROM ALL NEW SHAPES, NO STONE WAS LEFT UNTURNED AND WE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT YOU SOME UNPRECEDENTED AND TRULY UNIQUE FEATURES, PROCESSES AND TECHNOLOGIES.

360° R&D

With designer Kai Hopf and our product managers Dani Aeberli and Marco Lang, one and the same team is now responsible for the board, rig and even fin development. This results in an unrivalled board-rig ecosystem in which all DUOTONE products are really matching 100% now.
Besides this perfect match, the other driving force behind our R&D is the relentless push of our wave team around Victor Fernandez and Liam Dunkerbeck for better and better products.

SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY

Unlike the industry-standard semi custom technology, all our boards are now produced in a full custom technology which results in the best weight vs. strength ratio.

AI_BOARD_3D DESIGN SOFTWARE

In contrast to the industry-standard Shape3d program, our own exclusive 3D CAD software is based on math data-driven input. This allows us to cross-check the outcome using artificial intelligence to ensure maximum precision. Apart from being much more accurate and faster, complex 3D design tasks such as our ground-breaking SYNCED CURVES CONCEPT would otherwise have been simply impossible to realize. 

CNC SHAPED ONLY

All our boards are CNC shaped now which is not only much more accurate, but opens more decisive advantages compared to the traditional mould construction method which allows us to implement new shapes at any time.

PRODUCTION FOCUSED DEVELOPMENT

Every single prototype is made in our exclusive factory using the exact same process and materials as the production boards. This way, each prototype has exactly the same weight and flex and therefore feels identical to the board you get.

PRODUCT DETAILS

Going beyond your imagination. There is nothing alike than the STINGRAY D/LAB!


Do you want to double or triple your time on the water and experience the silent and effortless flight, even in the same wind conditions as Wing Foilers? Look no further than the STINGRAY board range, catering to every aspect of Windsurf Foiling from Foil Entry up to Hardcore Foil Freestyle.

The lineup consists of 3 distinct design concepts:

STINGRAY 136

Perfect for those entering the exciting world of Windsurf Foiling, the 136 offers generous dimensions allowing usage in lighter winds than you need to waterstart making it comfortable to uphaul and to get you up and flying in the lightest breeze. The backward-oriented volume allows you to move your feet close to the foil before the board is even in motion. However, as the STINGRAY 136 has a similar aspect ratio (length to width ratio) than the other sizes it’s by no means a dull board to ride. It will therefore grow with you as your skill and performance level progress. Beveled rails at the nose aid smooth out landings and recovery from touchdowns. Updated for 2024, it now includes CONVEX TAIL CUT-OUTS, minimizing wetted surface for smoother take-offs and quicker flight transitions.

STINGRAY D/LAB 126 and 116

With lengths of 206 and 196 cm respectively, these New School Freemove foil boards are super compact. This reduces the nose weight for an immediate take-off into flight mode. The reduced swing weight also makes these boards more aggressive to carve, jump and rotate on the foil. These 2 sizes are also equipped with our brand new CONVEX TAIL CUT-OUTS. Now made in FULL CUSTOM D/LAB TECHNOLOGY.

STINGRAY D/LAB 103

The smallest STINGRAY is designed for progressive foilers with focus on manoeuvres rather than straight line performance only. The 103 allows riders to link carves, 360s, and even air moves within a short time and distance. For quick change of directions with great connection to the foil - built to carve and pop! It is simply a 100% Freestyle Foiling optimized design. Now made in FULL CUSTOM D/LAB TECHNOLOGY.


All sizes now feature the Track Box System exclusively, eliminating the additional Tuttle Box and reducing weight by approximately 600 grams. This adjustment results in a more balanced board, facilitating quicker take-offs. Additionally, the new FAST MOUNT SYSTEM allows for easy foil mounting from the tail without dismantling screws and nuts (except for size 136). Be the first on the water with the STINGRAY series!

AI_Board_3D

Apart from being much more accurate and faster, complex 3D design tasks such as our ground-breaking SYNCED CURVES CONCEPT would otherwise have been simply impossible to realize. 

FULL CUSTOM D/LAB TECHNOLOGY

The FULL CUSTOM D/LAB TECHNOLOGY is a full custom technology which is one hundred percent identical to high-end custom made boards.

Instead of using a mould to bring the EPS foam core into its final shape each EPS block gets CNC milled. This ensures maximum precision and saves weight. 

Same as with high-end custom board makers the major advantage lays in the processing. We call this SINGLE PROCESS TECHNOLOGY and it is the key to our industry-leading weight-strength ratio. Instead of combining working steps to save time and money every single step follows its individual process. So for example instead of joining the PVC sandwich with the EPS core in a single shot we vacuum-bag the top and bottom PVC shields with the EPS core separately. 

Also instead of using standard 3mm PVC elements for the entire board we use thicker and thinner PVC plates as well according to the stress areas which makes the board lighter yet stronger.

For all D/LAB boards we use our most sophisticated layup which consists of more than 60 individual parts and components (nearly 20% more parts than used for our FULL CUSTOM SLS TECHNOLOGY). 

On top we are using the most high-end composite materials available to-date. 

  1. All carbon fibres used are a mix of high strength and high modulus carbon qualities depending on the individual requirements of each board section. Our high modulus carbon used can also be found on high-end products like aircraft’s, Formula One cars or our Platinum SLS masts, booms and extensions. 
  2. Innegra is a high modulus Propylene with unbeatable tensile and ding resistance. It offers a similar tensile strength to Kevlar, but is significantly stiffer. In addition, Innegra is the best composite fibre to prevent dents.
  3. We use our exclusive high performance S-glass fiber with an extra high silica content which offers much higher tensile strength as well as about 10-20% greater stiffness.
  4. And finally we are using our exclusive DUOTONE SENTEX® resin impregnated with silicon nano-spheres which helps us to reduce the weight even further without sacrificing durability. 

Instead of using a similar layup on all boards we use a DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC FLEX CONSTRUCTION for all our D/LAB boards since demands on the different disciplines (wave, freestyle, freeride, racing) and conditions vary quite a lot.

  1. Racing boards are e made to offer maximum performance (instant acceleration and V-max). Therefore these boards need be as stiff as possible. To achieve this no compromise stiffness we use a super high carbon content on all FALCON D/LAB layups.
  2. On wave boards though a certain „give“ is essential since these boards are very short and might become too stiff thus uncontrollable using a full carbon layup. Therefore the GRIP D/LAB boards come with a higher Innegra and S_GLASS+ content. These high-tech composites have a much higher tensile strength avoiding breakages after high landings. To still achieve an outstanding "spring-back" characteristics which makes the board more reactive and has a tremendous effect on the acceleration we use unidirectional Carbon reinforcements in longitudinal direction. 

Last but not least even every single board size has an individual layup. That’s the final stage of individualisation in construction.

The result speaks for itself since the D/LAB boards are up to 500 grams lighter than our SLS boards and up to a full kilo lighter than other semi custom production boards. And it’s the first time that a production board can compete even with the lightest custom made boards out there. 

Yet all of this is achieved without any sacrifice in durability since we always follow our core motto LIGHT DONE RIGHT.

Duotone Premium Strap 2.0

High quality closed cell neoprene for maximum longevity. Only black Lycra coating guarantees maximum comfort as well as maximum durability. The strap features measurement markings to allow you to quickly set up and replicate your individual size. Board specific attachments:

> All World Cup boards come equipped with double-screw plugs to prevent any twist and ensuring the most direct connection to the board

> All other boards come equipped with single-screw plugs to allow a faster repositioning of the straps plus a more comfortable ride due to a certain "give"

NEW - Completely revised and unique design:

+ 20% less weight

+ Significantly reduced elongation for direct connection and to avoid slipping in too far with risk of injury

+ Improved preforming for quick and easy assembly

SYNCED CURVES CONCEPT

Outline, rocker and rail shape are the 3 key elements that determine how a board feels and performs. In every rocker- and outline there are spots with more or less curvature. The same applies to the degree of rail curvature which changes considerably. To prevent the 3 curves from working "against" each other, the highest priority is to synchronize these curves. Means that in zones with an increased rocker curve, the outline curve is also increased plus the rails have an increased curvature and vice versa.

>> Increased outline curve, nose rocker and rail curvature around the mast track makes it easier to initiate the bottom turn (front foot initiated)

>> Increased outline curve, tail rocker and rail curvature behind the back strap for more radical top turns (back foot initiated)

To our knowledge this complex 3d task can only be performed by our own AI_BOARD_3D software. Testing this concept on existing boards the improvements to each board were so overwhelming that we incorporated this design feature into all 2026 boards.

Outline

SIZE SPECIFIC LENGTH

  • The 136 size has a slightly longer length to gain noticeably more control, ease of use and effortless take-off. Having some length at the front also softens re-entry, minimising catastrophic touch-downs make it the ideal beginner foil board.
  • The other sizes are much more compact to reduce the lift required for faster take offs and to keep them flying. The compact length makes these boards also more lively increasing maneuverability.

Rail Shape

Fuller rails to generate maximum righting moment plus forward drive for faster take-offs.

Deck Shape

Flatter deck shape for comfortable stance and maximum control during jibes. 

Fast Mount System

Be the fastest on the water >> the new FAST MOUNT SYSTEM allows to mount the foil from the tail without dismantling the mounting screws and nuts (except size 136).

No more multi system boxes >> saves approx. 600 g and prevents the board from becoming tail-heavy/sticky.

Bottom Shape

Double concave Vee-shape in the nose prevents catapults when touching down at full speed.

CONVEX TAIL CUT-OUTS (except size 103) reduce the wetted surface. This decreases the drag before take-off and accelerates the transition into flight mode.

Rocker Line

Rocker line developed over decades that generates enough lift whilst still releasing drag, a key performance component of modern foil sailing
