Duotone Neo SLS 2027 — High-Performance Wave Kite

The 2027 Duotone Neo SLS is the high-performance version of the legendary Neo, designed for advanced wave and strapless freestyle riders seeking faster steering, more direct feedback, and a sportier riding character. Featuring Duotone's Strong Light Superior (SLS) construction and a one-piece center strut design, the Neo SLS delivers increased torsional compliance for faster turning and exceptional drift performance in committed down-the-line surfing.

The refined and stiffer structure creates immediate bar feedback and highly precise control in demanding wave conditions. With its massive wind range, direct handling, and dynamic feel, the Neo SLS is built for riders demanding maximum performance and responsiveness for the demands of modern wave riding.

Key Features

• High-Performance Wave Kite: A more direct, precise, and performance-focused Neo for riders pushing hard in demanding wave conditions.
• Fast, Controlled Steering: The one-piece center strut increases torsional compliance for faster turning and precise positioning during down-the-line surfing.
