Duotone TS Big Air SLS 2025

Maintaining your kiteboard

Rinsing: Always rinse the board, fins, and straps with fresh water after every session, especially after using it in salt water. Salt and sand gradually damage the finish, screws, and inserts.

Drying: Let the board air-dry completely in the shade after rinsing. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as UV rays can damage both the laminate and the graphics.

Storage: Store the board flat or upright on a flat surface, preferably in a board bag, away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and cold, damp conditions. Don’t leave it in a closed car on a hot day.

Check: Regularly inspect the fins, fin screws, inserts, and foot straps for wear, and tighten or replace them as needed. Repair minor damage to the finish promptly to prevent water from getting into the core.

Who is the Duotone TS Big Air SLS 2025 suitable for?

The board is designed for experienced kiters who focus on Big Air, high jumps, and controlled landings. It’s the same type of board Big Air world champion Andrea Principi uses in competition.

What sizes is the board available in?

This series offers the board in sizes 136 and 139, so you can choose the model that matches your weight and preferences.

What does SLS mean in the name?

SLS stands for Strong Light Stylish - Duotone’s lightweight, premium construction, where materials such as Biax Carbon and Textreme Innegra deliver maximum stiffness and response with as little weight as possible.

Is the board suitable for beginners?

No, the TS Big Air SLS is built as a competition-level Big Air twintip with a stiff flex and intense pop. Beginners will typically benefit more from a softer, more forgiving freeride board.

How does the board perform when landing after big jumps?

The Double Diffusor Bottom under the board distributes the impact on touchdown and stabilizes the landing, so you land more softly and can focus on the next trick.

How can I best take care of the board?

Rinse the board and fins with fresh water after each session, let it dry in the shade, and store it in a board bag away from direct sunlight and heat. Regularly check the fins, screws, and inserts for wear.

Can the board be used for more than Big Air?

The board is specialized for Big Air, but its stiff construction and strong grip also make it great for demanding freeride and powered-upwind riding when you want maximum control.
