Duotone Wing Set Whizz SLS

Maintaining your Duotone Whizz SLS foil set

Always rinse your foil set with fresh water after use – especially after sailing in salt water – and let it dry completely before putting it away. Be sure to remove sand and dirt from screw holes and threads before mounting the wings again.

Once the set is dry, store it in a cool, dry, dark place – preferably in the original padded bags or a foil cover – away from direct sunlight and sharp objects. Regularly check the screws, threads, and nuts, and tighten them with a torque wrench to the recommended torque. Avoid dropping or putting strain on the wings during transport, and check for scratches or damage to the carbon before each session so you can enjoy your set for many years.

What is the Duotone Whizz SLS Wing Set best for?

The set is designed for wave and carving foiling, with a playful, loose setup that also pumps really well. It’s ideal for small waves, boat wakes, and windswell - and the larger sizes also work well for SUP and wake foiling.

What sizes does the Whizz SLS come in?

The wing set comes in five sizes: 700/S145, 850/S165, 1000/S185, 1200/S210, and 1450/S210, where the first number indicates the front wing’s area in cm² and the second indicates the stabilizer’s.

How do I choose the right size?

The smaller sizes are suited to experienced wave foilers focused on maximum maneuverability, while the larger ones suit beginners and heavier riders who want an easy platform to learn and progress on. Choose a smaller area for agility and a larger area for stability and low speed.

Can I use the Whizz SLS for wing and kite foiling?

Yes. The smaller sizes are also suitable for wing and kite foiling, while the larger sizes offer a playful dock-start option for experienced wing foilers.

Which fuselages is the set compatible with?

The Whizz SLS is compatible with Duotone Aero AL, AL 3BS, and Fanatic Carbon & AL fuselages. Duotone recommends a 66 cm aluminum fuselage, while 60 cm offers more playfulness and 74 cm offers more control.

Where should I position the wings on the mast track?

The set is ridden a little farther forward in the tracks than Duotone’s Carve and Glide wings, so start there and then adjust for balance and speed.

How do I best care for my foil set?

Rinse the set in fresh water after use in salt water, let it dry completely, and store it protected from sunlight. Check the screws and threads regularly, and tighten them with a torque wrench to the recommended torque.

Is the carbon construction an advantage?

Yes, the light and strong carbon layup offers a good balance of low weight, high stiffness, and durability - you’ll notice it directly in more precise response and better pop when pumping.
