A Magical Mix of Freestyle Wing Foiling & Team Spirit
When some of the world’s best Wing Foilers gather on one of Africa’s windiest coastlines, you know it’s going to be more than just a shoot. This year’s Duotone Team Shooting in Morocco turned into a celebration of team spirit, progression, and pure passion for the sport.

»"This trip was so much more than just a media production. It felt full of energy, emotion, and community. Once again proving that Wing Foiling is about lifestyle as much as performance."«
The Spots
The journey kicked off at La Crique Hotel, set in a protected bay famous for its steady winds and magical light. With the brand-new Duotone Pro Center right on site, we had full support — and nonstop wind from the first morning glow until the last light of day.
Next up was a Wave Mission at West Point. Conditions lined up perfectly, making it one of the true highlights of the trip.
We then headed to the Duotone Pro Center at PK25 Hotel, where the lagoon in front became the stage for synchronized jumps and smooth slow-motion sequences.
From PK25 we explored out to Dragon Island. As the tide rose, shallow sandbanks transformed into a mirror-flat playground only centimeters deep — a spot where precision was everything and the scenery felt unreal.

More Than a Shoot
This was no ordinary media trip. It felt like a Moroccan road trip powered by energy, emotion, and a love for the sport. The Duotone Freestyle Wing Foiling Team showed that it’s not only about performance — it’s about team spirit, creativity, and courage to explore new horizons.
Morocco gave us the stage. The riders and crew filled it with soul. And in the end, it wasn’t just about making content — it was about living the lifestyle and being part of a movement, great brand and great team!
