Duotone Blast SLS 2025

EAGLE or BLAST - which one is the right freeride board for you?

Where you come from >< Where it will take you

1) EAGLE: IT’S ALL ABOUT PLANING

• Where you come from: you’ve had your first windsurfing experience and can stay upwind. No other board will help you experience the sensation of gliding/planing in such a short time as the EAGLE.
• Where it will take you: besides getting you planing, jibing is the EAGLE’s second strength. It’s not just made for learning to (power)jibe, but will also accompany you all the way to freerace blasting and laydown jibing

2) BLAST: MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE WITH MINIMUM EFFORT

• Where you come from: you’re comfortable sailing with your feet in the foot straps, so the BLAST is your performance machine.
• Where it will take you: the BLAST will instantly make you a faster sailor. Since it’s also very easy to jibe, it will be your partner from your first power jibes all the way to pro-level laydown race jibes. Paired with a high-performance fin and a freerace sail, you might even become the fastest rider at your spot with the BLAST, while still enjoying the comfort of a freeride board.

When designing the BLAST, the key concept was to make a board with maximum performance yet minimal effort, while maintaining control across the widest possible wind range. But how could we make a board that works in such a wide range of conditions and suits such a broad range of user levels?

Firstly, the BLAST follows the same VOLUME YET CONTROL CONCEPT as the EAGLE. This means you can easily choose a board with 10 more liters than other brands without losing any control in overpowered conditions. With those extra liters, the board feels more stable underfoot in non-planing conditions and gets planing sooner than boards with less volume, without compromising high-end performance and control.

Additionally, thanks to its thin rails, the BLAST can be gybed aggressively by experienced riders, while its wide tail also makes it feel easy and smooth for intermediate riders. This lets you progress steadily through every level of jibing without ever outgrowing the board.

Finally, the racier, boxier rails and a further outboard strap position allow the rider to push harder, letting the board fly over the fin for increased top speed. The tail cutouts further reduce drag at full speed, giving you the edge over your friends.

Yet, as with our full-on racing FALCON_FIN boards, maximum control and predictable behavior across the widest possible wind range are also key assets of the BLAST.

With this wide range of features, the BLAST has been expertly crafted to provide endless hours of performance freeride>

The BLAST is available in two constructions: our PREMIUM SLS TECHNOLOGY or the standard EPOXY SANDWICH TECHNOLOGY.
