2024 Duotone Slick Review

We are massive fans of the Duotone Slick and were very excited to see and use the new 2024 version. At 2XS we have used every version of the Slick since its creation back in 2020 – it’s the original boom type wing – lots of brands have launched their own versions of the boom fitting but most of these are rather like an oversized handle and fits very differently to the leading edge strut and centre strut. The new Duotone Slick 2024 edition is available in 3 constructions – the standard with  MOD3 canopy model, the DLAB version and a new Concept Blue model – we got our hands on the new sta ..read more

Downwinding and downwind foilboards is the new foiling category worldwide – if you check out social media since the last couple of Molokai Crossing events in Hawaii – downwind SUP foiling has exploded across the globe.  The likes of Kai Lenny, James Casey and Dave Kalama are all at it. The new downwind boards have a more streamlined shape, narrower widths and longer rail lines, with either a flat hull or convex hull which is designed to pick up on the plane super early – I have  tried a couple of different volumes for winging 135, 120 and under 100 litres and found you can ..read more

Seaford College near Petworth visited 2XS on the 6th & 7th September for their annual watersports trip – every year we are faced with different weather – this year they scored with beautiful sunshine, light winds and perfect weather conditions. The years 7 & 8 had their fill of windsurfing, SUP, MegaSUP, volleyball, Ultimate Frisbee & sand art for a fun packed two days. Normally in September you are in your wetsuits but this was a “no wetsuit” event as the sea temperature was for UK standards tropical. Photos by Simon Bassett, 2XS Photos by Simon Bassett.
